Acupuncture
What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is an ancient system of healing developed in China over the last several thousand years. It restores and maintains health by the gentle insertion of small, very fine, sterile needles into the body's natural energy channels (called meridians) located just under the surface of the skin.
How does Acupuncture work? Early Chinese physicians discovered an energy network of 12 major maridians
traversing just under the skin. These meridians communicate with the internal structures and organs through over 1000 Acupoints on the body. The natural energy that heals the body call Qi (pronounced Chi) flows through the meridians and Acupoints much like electricity flows through a wiring system. Any disruption or blockage of Qi can throw the whole system off balance and cause many symptoms including pain. The practioner inserts needles into specific points to restore the natural flow of Qi, there by alleviating pain and restoring the body's natural balance.
