What is Acupuncture? Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine practiced for thousands of years in
China and other Eastern countries. Since making its way West, it has quickly become one of the fastest
growing alternative therapies and is often used to complement and enhance the benefits of traditional
medicine.
Acupuncture subscribes to the ancient view that the basis of good health is the harmonious balance of qi
(chi), the vital life force that empowers the body. When the qi can flow freely, health abounds. If this energy
becomes stagnant or blocked, then the effects will result in loss of energy and the deterioration of well-
being. The acupuncturist’s goal is to release blocked energy by applying sterilized needles to key points
on the body to restore balance and improve health.
The WHO (World Health Organization) has identified that Acupuncture can treat
the following conditions successfully: Acute and Chronic Pain, Insomnia, Menopause/PMS Cramps,
Muscle Cramping, Obesity, Osteoarthritis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Sciatica, Stress, Smoking Cessation,
Alcohol Dependence.
What does an Acupuncture session entail? After your consultation, you will be guided through a series of
relaxation techniques to ensure that the mind and body are completely relaxed for your treatment. A
licensed acupuncturist will apply needles into key areas on the face and body to treat various symptoms.
The acupuncture session is virtually painless and will help to alleviate or cure a multitude of symptoms.
While you will undoubtedly feel the benefits from a single treatment, additional sessions may be
recommend for optimum results.
