A Traditional Approach to Modern Health
Our approach reflects the elegant artistry and clinical traditions of Japanese acupuncture, where careful diagnosis, refined technique, and attentive treatment work together to support the body’s natural intelligence.
Each treatment is tailored to the individual, helping to restore harmony and promote long-term wellbeing.
In Japanese, “acupuncture” is called “Shinkyu”鍼灸, and are two Chinese characters that mean acupuncture ( 鍼 ”shin”) and moxibustion (灸” kyu”). The oldest written record of acupuncture is found in the Internal Canon of the Yellow Emperor in China, which dates back to approximately 200 BC. It does not distinguish between acupuncture and moxibustion, giving the same indication for both treatments. Acupuncture balances and improves the positive energy “Qi” that flows through the body along the meridians. The practitioner can direct this energy using fine needles to tonify energy deficiencies and reduce excesses. In Japan, this treatment is known as Keiraku Chiryo 経絡治療 ( けいらくちりょう ) and involves the treatment of the entire meridian system which in turn is paired with the internal organs.
Moxibustion predates acupuncture. It can be thought of as the mother of acupuncture. It involves burning the moxa herb 艾 mugwort/artemisia directly on or near the skin. In Oriental medicine we consider the duality of both Yin and Yang ( a theory based on the relationship of each part ) and, depending on how moxa is used and prepared before use, moxibustion can be thought to increase either the Yin or the Yang energy within the body. For example, because it is a hot energy ( Yang ) then the resulting cooling effect ( Yin ) will be increased ( like sweating- which cools the body ).
Now, in our 16th year, ShinSei Acupuncture provides exceptional care to visitors within the local Sitges community, the surrounding Catalunya region, and visitors worldwide.

The founder Steven is an incredible expert who was trained by a Japanese master in Japan. I had acupuncture before but his clinic is a different level. I only had one session sadly as I was in Sitges a short time but I am still benefiting from the results. Steven is very generous and offers post-treatment service. He helped me through a difficult period of my life and managed to send me Chinese medicine which did wonders. I hope to be able to return for another session soon. We stayed in touch and I can only highly recommend him and his clinic.
During my travel, I hurt my back. Luckily I found Steve, who happened to be just around the corner from my Airbnb. Steve didn’t just treat my back but my overall health, like my digestion, my rashes, and balance my energy. I was sceptical at first since he wasn’t Chinese or Asian, but turned out he is much better than most of my Chinese acupuncturists in NYC! I would definitely go back and do some more treatments for my menopause.
One of the reference centres in the area where acupuncture, moxibustion and other Japanese techniques such as shiatsu massage are performed. Qualified staff with extensive knowledge of oriental medicine and a good quality service.
I am very thankful to Steven who helped me at different stages with big health issues. But the most I got out of his practice as acupuncture is that I have understood that it is a wonderful preventive medicine. Today I visit Steven for treatment regularly once every 6 weeks and I decided not to invest in private insurance. My health has never been better. Thank you Steven very much 🙏
I have been doing acupuncture with Steve for a few years and my experience is wonderful! I have gone for different discomforts and have always experienced the best results. Steve is brilliant and very spot-on. The clinic has an extraordinary and magical atmosphere. I highly recommend him and am very grateful to have him around.
Thanks, Steve!
I went to Steve’s office for low energy status due to an intense stress situation. After the first session I already felt better and after 3 more fully recovered. Steve is very professional and also humanly very warm.
Although Steve is not the cheapest, he is the BEST! Since I am not in a position to take antibiotics, he has helped me to recover from infections over the years in a truly impressive way. He has a wealth of experience which he puts to good use. Don’t settle for second best !!
