ACUPUNCTURE

Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine practice that involves the insertion of thin needles into specific points on the body. These points, when stimulated, can help restore the flow of vital energy, known as Qi (pronounced "chee"), which is believed to be responsible for maintaining overall health and well-being.

​

The underlying theory of acupuncture is rooted in the concept of balance. According to traditional Chinese medicine, when the flow of Qi is disrupted or blocked, it can lead to various physical and emotional ailments. By inserting needles into specific points along the body's meridian pathways, acupuncture aims to restore the balance and flow of Qi, promoting the body's natural healing abilities.

​

ACUPUNCTURE is often used to address a wide range of conditions, including pain management, stress reduction, digestive disorders, respiratory issues, and emotional imbalances. It is a holistic approach that considers the interconnectedness of the body, mind, and spirit.

​

During an acupuncture session, the acupuncturist will conduct a thorough assessment of the patient's health history and current symptoms. They will then carefully select the appropriate acupuncture points and insert fine, sterile needles into these points. The needles are typically left in place for a specific duration, ranging from a few minutes to half an hour, while the patient rests comfortably.

​

The sensations experienced during acupuncture can vary from person to person. Some people report a mild tingling or dull ache around the needle insertion site, while others may not feel anything at all.

​

In recent years, scientific research has explored the physiological effects of acupuncture. Studies suggest that acupuncture may stimulate the release of endorphins, the body's natural pain-relieving chemicals, as well as promote blood circulation and modulate the activity of the nervous system. These mechanisms may help explain acupuncture's potential benefits in managing pain, reducing inflammation, and improving overall well-being.
