The color and light encoded in a flower essence, when applied to its correspondig acupuncture point, create an exponential effect that revivifies your ife force and lifts it to a new octave.  There is a sensation of a multiplying effect or holographic link between floral nature and the life of your body, soul, and spirit.

A hallmark of these treatments is the grounding of psyhchological insights into the body, enabling you to manifest your goals through direct action in the world.

This treatment system galvanizes your physical body to actively participate with your emotional, mental, and spiritual processes.

Classical Five Element Acupuncture is uniquely appropriate because it is a resonant energetic system of acupuncture that "sympathically resonants" with the light frequencies of Floral Essences - (the idea is similar to how a grand piano with the damper pedal disengaged - the strings will then sympathetically resonate with any frequency or note played on a nearby instrument such as a guitar of flute)

Five Element Acupuncture differs from other acupuncture treatments because the rationale for selecting appropriate acupuncture points for treatment, first is based on ascertaining the Five Element Constitution of the patient and then only utilizing Element points on the corresponding Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water meridians - this is found to nourish the person at a deep core level (other gathering points are used as well as nourishing points). Secondly,  acupoints are chosen according to the 'spirit' of the point and not according to the 'function' as determined in other systems. 

In Floral Acupuncture, essences are chosen that resonate and enhance the already resonant acupoint points. 

Predominantly, at this time the traditional Bach Essences are chosen but this does not preclude the use of other Essences from time to time or 'amplifier' Essences such as Lotus.

Floral Essences can either be administer with or without needling the point. 

Without needling the point a cotton ball is dipped in the Essence and applied to the acupoint.

A gold needle inserted very superficially is used when a stronger effect is desired
