Acupuncture involves the insertion of very fine sterile needles into specific points on the body to regulate the flow of ‘qi’, your body’s vital energy. For a number of lifestyle and environmental reasons, qi can become disturbed, depleted, or blocked, which can result in some symptoms of pain and illness. Traditional acupuncture can be an effective therapy to help restore balance and promote physical and emotional harmony. It can work in conjunction with any medical treatment you are currently receiving and benefits can be felt on a physical, mental and emotional level.
