About Me
Helen Were Acupuncture is a holistic and natural treatment provider located in Mid-Sussex. Helen has a background in yoga and a strong interest in eastern medicine, which led to qualifications in general acupuncture, facial acupuncture, and non-penetrative Japanese acupuncture. She believes in diagnosing and treating the underlying imbalances in the body rather than purely treating symptoms.
She specialises in facial rejuvenation and lifting without the use of botox and offers a range of treatments to promote wellness and rejuvenation. She is a fully qualified and accredited practitioner holding a Bachelors of Science in acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine awarded by the University of Greenwich. She is a member of the British Acupuncture Council and a registered Toyahari (Japanese acupuncture) practitioner.
Cosmetic Acupuncture
As we age, our skin's natural renewal process slows, leading to decreased collagen production and the emergence of wrinkles.
Facial rejuvenation acupuncture, also known as cosmetic acupuncture, is a natural and non-toxic way to minimise fine lines and wrinkles and renew the glow of the skin to provide a more youthful look to the face. Facial acupuncture will not only boost collagen production, but will also support your overall health and improve skin elasticity. I use the finest acupuncture needles and pure essential oils to enhance natural beauty and reduce many of the facial signs of ageing in an entirely natural way.
Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture is more than a cosmetic treatment, it is a holistic approach to wellness that enhances your natural beauty while supporting your mind, body, and spirit. In Chinese medicine, the face is a reflection of overall health, and by improving circulation, balancing Qi, and nourishing the skin, we encourage radiance from within. As a result I often find that people who come for Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture report that other problems have been resolved or relieved by the overall effect of the treatment. My treatments will nourish the spirit, helping you feel refreshed, confident, and empowered. As your skin glows, so does your sense of well-being because true radiance starts from within.
By stimulating specific acupuncture points on the face and body, this treatment:
-
Promotes healthy blood flow, bringing oxygen and nutrients to the skin
-
Encourages collagen production, reducing fine lines and improving skin elasticity
-
Supports lymphatic drainage, reducing puffiness and brightening the complexion
-
Relieves tension and stress, calming the nervous system for inner and outer balance
-
Enhances overall energy flow (Qi), addressing deeper imbalances that affect vitality
All facial acupuncture treatments include facial massage using my own blends of essential oils and treatment with Celluma Low Level Light Therapy where appropriate.
It is recommended to have a series of 10 weekly treatments and packages are available, however many people start to see results after their first treatment. Book your first treatment here!
