Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a complementary medicine based on the belief that energy flows through the body along pathways called meridians. When energy flow is blocked or insufficient, it can affect your health and wellbeing.
Acupuncture originates from Chinese medicine. It uses fine, sterile needles to restore energy flow, helping to balance the mind and body. Treatments are tailored to each person’s current concerns. An acupuncture session involves inserting the needles at specific points on the body.
