Acupuncture Therapy

$98 (50 mins)

  • Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine technique that involves inserting thin needles into specific points on the body.

How Acupuncture Works for People:

Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medical practice that involves the insertion of thin needles into specific points on the body. It is believed to work through several mechanisms:

  • Qi and Energy Balance: According to traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), acupuncture helps balance the flow of Qi (pronounced "chee") or vital energy in the body. When Qi is disrupted or blocked, it can lead to various health problems. Acupuncture aims to restore the smooth flow of Qi, promoting overall well-being.

  • Nervous System Regulation: Acupuncture needles stimulate nerve fibers in the skin and underlying tissues. This stimulation can trigger the release of endorphins and other neurotransmitters, leading to pain relief and improved mood.

  • Blood Circulation: Acupuncture can enhance blood circulation in the body. Improved circulation can aid in healing, reduce inflammation, and promote relaxation.

  • Release of Tension: The insertion of acupuncture needles at specific points can help relax tense muscles and reduce muscle spasms, making it beneficial for pain management.

  • Immune System Modulation: Some research suggests that acupuncture may modulate the immune system, helping the body defend against illness.

  • What is acupuncture?
    Acupuncture is a holistic treatment where super-thin, sterile needles are gently placed on specific points of your body to help you feel better and boost your overall wellness. Whether you're looking to ease pain, reduce stress, or improve your sleep, acupuncture offers a personalized approach that can help you feel your best.
  • Does acupuncture hurt?
    Don’t worry—it’s not painful at all. The thin nature of the needles used during treatment often results in a relaxing and pleasurable experience. In fact, most people find it relaxing, and you might even drift off to sleep during the session.
