Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medical practice that involves the insertion of thin needles into specific points on the body to promote healing, alleviate pain, and restore balance to the body's energy flow, known as Qi (pronounced "chee").
Qi flows through meridians or channels in the body. When Qi becomes blocked or imbalanced, it can lead to pain, illness, or other health problems.
Acupuncture aims to restore the smooth flow of Qi by stimulating specific points along these meridians.
Acupuncture is used to treat a wide range of health conditions, including pain management, musculoskeletal disorders, digestive issues, respiratory conditions, neurological disorders, emotional disorders, and reproductive health concerns. It is also commonly used for relaxation and stress relief.
