Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a form of treatment that involves inserting very thin needles through a patient's skin at specific points on the body, to various depths with the aim of balancing their energy.

Acupuncture can help boost wellbeing and may cure some illnesses. It is used for different kinds of pain, such as headaches, blood pressure problems, and whooping cough, etc.,

How does it work?

Traditional Chinese medicine explains that health is the result of a harmonious balance of the complementary extremes of "yin" and "yang" of the life force known as "qi," pronounced "chi." Illness is said to be the consequence of an imbalance of the forces.

Qi is said to flow through meridians, or pathways, in the human body. These meridiens and energy flows are accessible through 350 acupuncture points in the body.

Inserting needles into these points with appropriate combinations is said to bring the energy flow back into proper balance.

Acupuncture points are seen as places where nerves, muscles, and connective tissue can be stimulated. The stimulation increases blood flow, while at the same time triggering the activity of the body's natural painkillers.
