About Acupuncture

For over 5000 years, acupuncture has been in use as a complete and holistic system to treat illness and maintain wellness. It is rooted in the understanding that the mind, body and spirit are connected and that when one component is out of balance, it will affect the others. Energy called "Chi" flows in pathways - known as meridians - throughout the body, and in every cell. The quality and quantity of Chi influences our health. Chi can become blocked or stuck, causing imbalances and eventually, disease. Physical or emotional trauma, stress, lack of exercise, poor diet, weak constitution, seasonal cycles can all lead to imbalances that eventually may result in illness and pain. By inserting a thin, sterile needle into a point that accesses a blocked meridian, blockages are relieved and the flow of Chi is restored encouraging the body's natural ability to heal itself.

Scientific research has discovered that the acupuncture points show a variety of unique bioelectrical properties. Stimulation of these points causes definite physiological reactions affecting brain activity, blood pressure, heart rate and the immune system.
