What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is a treatment that uses very thin steel needles inserted into the skin to stimulate specific points in the body.
Acupuncture therapy is known to release blockages in the body and stimulate function, evoking the body’s natural healing response through various physiological systems. Modern research has demonstrated acupuncture’s effects on the nervous system, endocrine, immune systems, cardiovascular system, and digestive system. By stimulating the body’s various systems, acupuncture can help to resolve pain, improve sleep, digestive functions, and an overall general sense of well-being.
Acupuncture can improve the body’s functions and promote the natural self-healing process by stimulating specific Anatomic Sites. Commonly referred to as Acupuncture Points, or Acupoints. The most common method used to stimulate Acupoints is the insertion of fine, sterile needles into the skin. Our experienced acupuncturists use techniques to cause minimal if any discomfort on insertion.
