What is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture was originally from China over five thousand years ago. In Acupuncture, fine needles are inserted at specific points of the body to stimulate, disperse, and graduate the flow of Qi or energy flow that restores a healthy energy balance.

Acupuncture is used to improve well-being and treat acute, chronic, and degenerative conditions in adults and children. For centuries, traditional Chinese medical practitioners have handled down their knowledge and techniques for effective treatments of a wide range of conditions.

In many cases, ancient therapies have provided relief of ailments for which modern medical practice offers no prescribed remedy. Every year more scientific research emerges providing these alternative methods to western medicine to be reliable and safe.
