What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is a minimally invasive medical practice that involves stimulating points on the body with sterile, single-use needles to alleviate pain or to help treat various health conditions. The Acupuncture points are situated in all areas of the body. Sometimes the appropriate points are far removed from the area that is causing you pain.
Acupuncture has been practiced throughout the world for over 2000 years but only reached the west in the early 19th Century. Extensive research has gone into Acupuncture’s uses and it now forms part of mainstream medical practice. This modern, safe, and highly effective treatment targets the cause of your symptoms, not the symptoms themselves.
How Acupuncture works.
Each Acupuncture needle is placed carefully in nerve-rich areas of the skin. The insertions cause little to no discomfort, but are enough to stimulate the immune system which promotes healing of tissues, glands, and organs.
Each organ in the body has its own associated channel or nerve pathway that must be clear for the organ to function.
The needles cause a response in these pathways that increase circulation, unblock the flow of energy, and return the body to a state of health.
The science of Acupuncture may be unclear but the results are not and everyone can benefit from treatment.
