WELCOME TO GLOW ACUPUNCTURE AMSTERDAM
Acupuncture for pain, women’s health, digestion, stress and overall wellbeing
Helping your body find its way back to health and wellbeing
your path to wellbeing
A little time to understand what your body is telling
Your first visit is a chance to slow down, talk through what brings you in, and look at the bigger picture.
We’ll then decide together on the most appropriate approach for you.
Treatment may include acupuncture, motor point acupuncture, cupping or massage, depending on what you need.
There is no one-size-fits-all treatment.
01 - we talk
02 - we treat
03 - we make a plan
what can acupuncture help with
Acupuncture can support a wide range of concerns. I look at your symptoms in the context of your whole health, rather than treating each one in isolation.
Pain & musculoskeletal
Neck and shoulder tension, back pain, jaw pain, muscular pain , headaches, restricted movement or recurring pain.
Women's health
PMS, painful or irregular periods, missing periods, PMOS (used to be PCOS), fertility support, pregnancy-related wellbeing, perimenopause and menopause.
Stress and the nervous system
Stress, difficulty relaxing, sleep problems, tension, restlessness and feeling overlwhelmed.
Digestive health
Bloating, constipation, diarrhea, digestive discomfort and changes in digestion.
a more targeted approach to muscular pain
When treating muscular pain, I sometimes use a specialized technique called Motor Point Acupuncture.
Motor points are specific areas where the nerve connects with a muscle. By placing acupuncture needles at the selected motor points, we can work more directly with the muscles that may be contributing to pain, tension or restricted movement.
I use this approach on its own or combined with traditional acupuncture, cupping or massage, depending on what your body needs.

Upper back pain
Cristina really takes her time to ensure that your problem areas are fully dealt with before the session ends. My most recent visit left my upper body completely loosened up which what just what I needed.
