WHAT IS ACUPUNCTURE?

Acupuncture, a practice rooted in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), involves the insertion of fine needles into specific points on the body. Its purpose is to enhance overall well-being and relieve a variety of ailments in the body. This therapeutic approach is based on the concept of “qi” — a vital energy flowing through channels within the body. Disruptions in the flow of this essential qi can manifest as illness or discomfort. Acupuncture maintains the health of the qi flow by promoting circulation, activating the innate healing process within our bodies, and restoring balance.

Following a thorough assessment and traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis, your qualified practitioner will create a personalized treatment plan tailored to support your overall well-being.
