Authentic Chinese Acupuncture Treatment, consisting of traditional Chinese art of diagnosis and the incursion of hair fine needles on acupuncture points.

ACU-FACIAL

The Acu-Facial is a non-invasive alternative to surgery/face-lifts, Botox, and dermal fillers. It reduces fine lines and wrinkles, lifts sagging facial muscles, and brings new life aging skin. It is suited for men and women in all stages of life.

CUPPING THERAPY
CHINESE HERBAL MEDICINE

Cupping therapy is an ancient form of alternative medicine in which a therapist puts special cups on your skin for a few minutes to create suction. People get it for many purposes, including to help with pain, inflammation, blood flow, relaxation and well-being, and as a type of deep-tissue massage.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has evolved over thousands of years. TCM practitioners use various mind and body practices, such as acupuncture combined with herbal products to address health problems.

HOLISTIC PRACTICE

PHILOSOPHY

IMG_3829.JPG

My name is Dr Petronella Yu, born in Upington, Northern Cape,

on 7 April 1961.

​

I am a doctor that specializes in Acupuncture and Chinese medicine, and have been practicing since 1994 and was part of the delegation to legally register Acupuncture at The Allied Health Professions Council of South Africa (AHPCSA).

I am the vice president of the National Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine Associations of South Africa (NACMASA) since 2002 and have presented Acupuncture to the public on various occasion.

 â€‹

The Acupuncture Clinic was born in a health shop in Pretoria, Gauteng, in 1995.

Assisting a Chinese doctor in Acupuncture for 7 years, Dr Petronella Yu went solo and untill today is still working alone in the Acupuncture Clinic in President Steyn Street, Pretoria-North.

 

With a patients first visit the traditional Chinese art of diagnosis is performed.

Forms of diagnosis: appearance of patients characteristics, listening to their voice, natural smell of patient, looking at the color and texture of a patient's tongue, feeling the quality of the pulse and asking questions about their symptoms. This form of diagnosis can determine the functioning of any particular organ or system in the body.

 

Acupuncture is the insertion of very fine, sterilized, stainless steel needles on acupuncture points on the body.

The period of treatment depends on the patient's response to the treatment, the age of the patient and the duration of the disease.

​

Modern medical costs, which may include hospitalization and long-term therapy can be very costly.

Acupuncture will only be a fraction of the medical costs.

So if the high costs of medical treatment have not cured your problem, maybe it is about time that you give Acupuncture a try.

​

Pain management, if you want to relieve aches and pains, then acupuncture is for you. This pain management therapy will reduce or eliminate chronic back, neck, muscle and joint pain. 

Prevention is better than cure. 

 

You should maintain your body and emotions in a very good and healthy condition. 

Come and learn how Acupuncture will change the way you think about health care!

 

Acupuncture.

The point of well-being. 

"When you touch one thing with deep awareness,
 you touch everything.
"

- Lao Tzu
