WHY CHOOSE THE ENRIC MUNIENTE’S CLARE ACUPUNCTURE CLINIC?
Enric had the immense opportunity of studying acupuncture directly with Dr. Nguyen Van Nghi and his disciples in Barcelona, where he was taught an old form of acupuncture method used by the old Chinese Masters.
This method of acupuncture fluctuates and changes according to the seasons and uses the points that are open at a specific moment, according to the old sages. This is called Chrono acupuncture.
Among the many acupuncture techniques he practices, Enric has developed a technique that he calls Shamanic Acupuncture. This technique consists in combining acupuncture treatment with different kinds of drumbeats. Knowing the organ or meridian that is imbalanced, and drumming accordingly, can return the balance.
If what mentioned above may sound a bit arcane, please remember Enric is also a registered nurse with his feet on the ground knowing which technique is best addressed to the person he is treating.
OTHER METHODS THAT ENRIC USES INCLUDE:
Tuning Forks
A tuning fork is a device made from metal that produces certain frequencies. These frequencies are used to detect and correct imbalances in the magnetic field that surrounds the body.
The use of tuning forks aims to treat the body and mind and restore inner balance and health. It works with the nervous system, the musculo-skeletal system and more subtle energies that surround the body. Tuning forks can be used in combination with acupuncture needles but can also be used to treat people that do not tolerate needles.
Colour Therapy
Chromotherapy is a method of treatment that was known to the ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Chinese. It uses a specific colour spectrum to address certain health issues.
Every colour has its own wavelength, frequency, and quality of energy. The body responds to different stimuli and one of them is colour.
Insurance
Enric Muniente is registered with Acupuncture Foundation Professional Association (AFPA). The Clare Acupuncture clinic is fully insured as well.
