Acupuncture
Acupuncture involves the insertion of very fine, sterile needles into specific areas of the body to stimulate the body's
innate healing processes and re-establish balance.
This ancient practice is based on the principle of restoring the flow of Qi (pronounced "chee"), which travels through
pathways in the body called meridians. When Qi becomes blocked or imbalanced, discomfort and illness is the result. By
stimulating specific points along these meridians, acupuncture works to restore the smooth flow of energy, promoting
both physical and emotional well-being.
Modern research has translated these historical revolutions to reveal that the benefits of acupuncture come from its
ability to stimulate the nervous system, triggering the release of neurotransmitters, endorphins, and other natural
chemicals that promote healing and pain relief. By targeting highly influenceable areas for the release of these
beneficial compounds, acupuncture improves circulation, reduces inflammation, and optimizes the body’s biochemical
processes.
