Welcoming a New Year can be a scary thought and it seems the best way to deal with it, is making a New Year’s resolutions. Concepts such as Veganuary and Dry January spur people on to changing their habits and taking on a healthier and happier lifestyle.
Establishments such as gyms see a large increase in new members in January looking for a fresh start and your clinic may be no different. Don’t be surprised if you receive an influx of new, and old, customers looking to refresh their regime– so be prepared!
We have devised a few ways you can help patients looking for a detox, wanting to lose weight or simply kickstart a new health journey.
1. Detox Treatments
It’s important to know when it’s time to clear out clutter and streamline your body as you would to your wardrobe at the end of every season. Acupuncture has a natural diuretic effect as it helps the body detoxify by the elimination of toxins through the urinary tract. By unblocking the Qi and releasing stagnation, patients will feel the discharge of toxins. Completing just one acupuncture treatment, your patient may start to finally feel fresh again.
We have our bestselling Orange Plastic Handle needles which are tailored for drug and detox practitioners. As we are the official partner of NADA GB, the D-Type needles are perfect for ear acupuncture. We also have smaller Korean style stainless steel hand acupuncture needles which are just as effective.
2. Aura Herbal Tea
Our Aura tea is the perfect way to achieve maximum results with little effort! The range includes 9 functional and herbal teas, all inspired by ancient Chinese recipes and is a great addition to your clinic. The range is 100% natural, free from caffeine and is ideal to use alongside treatments.
For patients wanting to lose weight, we recommend SlimmingT. The blend is the original Fei Yan tea which is China’s most popular slimming tea.
