ACUPUNCTURE - What is acupuncture, and how does it work?
Acupuncture, a foundational aspect of traditional Chinese medicine, is based on the belief that our bodies are governed by a life force known as ‘Qi’ (pronounced ‘chee’). This vital energy flows through meridians, or pathways, within the body. When the flow of Qi is smooth and balanced, we experience good health, but disruptions in this energy can lead to physical or emotional ailments.
Acupuncture aims to restore this balance by inserting thin needles into specific points along the meridians, stimulating the body’s natural healing response. This process encourages the smooth flow of Qi, promoting physical and emotional well-being. While the principles of acupuncture may sound mystical, modern science has begun to understand its benefits. Studies suggest that acupuncture can stimulate nerves, increase blood flow, and trigger the release of endorphins—our body’s natural painkillers.
What conditions can acupuncture be used to treat?
Acupuncture can effectively treat various health issues, including back pain, insomnia, menopausal symptoms, allergies, hay fever, skin disorders, and many others.
