Background
Dr Matt Roessler started to learn about Traditional Oriental Medicine at the very young age of 7. His martial arts master was a renown hand acupuncturist who started to teach him the principles of the five elements and energy flow. In fact,
a lot of the principles that Matt applies today relate back to the teachings that were passed on by his Master.

“What really made me decide to become an acupuncturist was when I took my close friend to my Master for treatment. My friend had Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue and was bed ridden for more than 2 years. No western treatment had been able to help my friend, so as a last resort we went to see my master. Within 4 treatments my friend was out of bed and has never looked back since. It was
then that I knew what my purpose in life was.”

Matt then went on to gain his formal qualifications at Melbourne College of Natural Medicine. He treated at the outpatient service for 2 years and also treated the less fortunate at Collingwood Community Health Centre. He now specializes in Women’s Health, Weight Management, and Stress Management.

What is Pain-Free Acupuncture and how does it work?
Acupuncture is an essential part of Traditional Oriental Medicine. It is a comprehensive health care system with a clinical history of over 3000 years. Basically acupuncture works to promote the body's ability to heal itself.

Science has explained that energy flows throughout the universe including our bodies. The Chinese word for energy is qi (pronounced chee). Qi flows in the
path of least resistance, and this forms the meridians within our body.

These meridians carry the qi and information that cells and organs require to function properly and therefore keep the body in balance.

When the meridians become blocked the flow of qi becomes impeded. Therefore the cells and organs do not acquire the nutrients than they need in order to function at optimum levels. When the organs are not receiving the nutrients that they require we start to get illnesses occurring.

From an extremely basic viewpoint Pain-Free Acupuncture uses fine needles which unblock the channels and allow the correct amount of nutrients and information to reach the cells and organs which in turn allow the organs to function at optimum levels. This then allows the body to correct itself and eliminate the problem.

Pain-Free Acupuncture uses fine needles and, in many cases, non-insertive Japanese techniques to give you an extremely refreshing and relaxing experience which is 100% Pain-Free! Matt incorporates Qigong (similar to Reiki) as a peaceful treatment which utilises the energy from the environment to completely calm your mind, body, and soul. As Matt transfers energy thought the needles he does not need to physically manipulate them, therefore avoiding the pain that most people experience with acupuncture.

With improved health you will enjoy increased energy and vitality, better sleeping patterns, improved concentration, optimal digestive function, fewer infections, and less disruptive hormonal fluctuations.
