What is acupuncture? A form of traditional Chinese medicine that is based on the theory that energy, also known as “chi,” flows through the body. Trained practitioners stimulate energy flow throughout the body by carefully inserting ultra-thin needles into the skin. A good flow of energy is said to promote health.
Acupuncture reduces stress, anxiety, and depression, and improves focus and quality of sleep. It also helps with headaches, muscle pain, high blood pressure, and digestive problems. Studies have shown that it is an effective tool in treating a wide variety of chronic diseases and conditions including rheumatoid arthritis, back pain, nerve paralysis, obesity, and substance abuse.
