Acupuncture

Traditional Chinese Medicine and acupuncture use a complex system of healing rooted in thousands of years of practice. It has gained popularity in the West due to its effectiveness in treating a wide range of ailments.

Acupuncture promotes natural healing by restoring balance to the body. It may be used to manage pain, enhance immunity, support physical and emotional health, and improve overall function and well-being. It is a safe, painless, and effective way to treat a wide variety of health problems.

During your treatment acupuncture points will be stimulated using needles, moxibustion, and other modalities to activate qi (pronounced chee) - a person’s vital energy. This energy travels along channelled pathways throughout the body called meridians. When these meridians are blocked, qi cannot flow freely, which causes physical, mental, and emotional health imbalances. Acupuncture assists the body in healing itself by opening meridians and stimulating the free flow of qi; encouraging balance and health within the body.
