Let the power that made the body, heal the body…
Acupuncture is an ancient healing practice that works by stimulating the body’s natural ability to heal and restore balance. Rooted in Chinese Medicine, it is based on the understanding that Qi, or vital energy, flows through a network of channels (meridians) within the body. When this energy flows smoothly and abundantly, we experience good health. However, when Qi becomes blocked, weak, or imbalanced, it can lead to pain, illness, and emotional distress.
By inserting fine, sterile needles into specific points along these meridians, acupuncture encourages the body to regulate and restore its natural energy flow.
Modern research suggests that acupuncture influences the nervous system, immune response, circulation, and hormone regulation, promoting overall well-being. It can also trigger the release of endorphins (natural painkillers) and improve blood flow, which helps reduce discomfort and enhance healing.
