What is Acupuncture and How Does it Work?
Acupuncture is an ancient technique rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM) that promotes and restores balance in the body through the insertion of needles along the pathways known as meridians. These meridians carry vital energy called Qi. The energy that flows throughout the body is necessary for its proper functioning. Sometimes, stagnant energy from trauma or mental and emotional stress can disrupt the pathways. Acupuncture sees the symptoms as an imbalance in these energy pathways.
The needles are placed in acupuncture points to promote the flow of energy, unlock pathways, stimulate key points, restore balance, release blockages, and enhance the body’s natural healing abilities. Acupuncture has been practiced around the world for thousands of years because of its natural approach.
