What is Acupuncture
Acupuncture involves inserting fine needles into specific points on
the body (acupoints), which communicate withn channels (meridians)
of vital energy (Qi, or Chi). It is often
combined with Moxibustion, the burning of the herb Moxa (Chinese
Mugwort), which helps to tonify, warm, smooth Qi, and stimulate acu-points
and certain areas of the body.
Theoretically, acupuncture adjusts this flow of qi in the body,
allowing the qi to move freely where it may be stuck, or guiding it
to areas of deficiency, and leading it away from areas of excess
with too much qi. This regulation of qi allows the harmonious
balance of the body to be restored.
The needles are single-use, sterile, disposable and so thin you may
not even notice them. Others may feel tingling, warmth, heaviness,
or qi movement.
It is extremely relaxing & most patients experience dramatic results
with it!
