Acupuncture

What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is a system of medicine used to treat various physical, mental, and emotional conditions and to alleviate pain. It focuses on strengthening the physical condition and harmonizing the body systems to promote longevity and healing.  Originating in ancient China, acupuncture is now widely practiced in the West, and is accepted as an effective therapy by the National Institute of Health and the World Health Organization.
 
How does it work? 
Understood traditionally, acupuncture works by circulating qi throughout the vessels of the body.  From a biomedical perspective, acupuncture improves microcirculation, regulates the body’s respiration, temperature, blood pressure, hormonal secretion and immune response.  Acupuncture also stimulates the central nervous system and affects the release of basic body
chemicals, called neurotransmitters, throughout the body.
