How Acupuncture Works!

Acupuncture is a powerful medicine that encourages the body to promote natural healing and improve function. In Acupuncture there are more than 400 acupuncture points, located on channels called meridians that run along the surface of the body, governing the flow of Qi (pronounced “Chee”).  When Qi, the body’s life force energy,  moves freely through the meridians, the body is balanced and healthy.  When the Qi becomes stuck or blocked it can result in physical, mental or emotional ill health. Your practitioner will make a Chinese medical diagnosis based upon a thorough examination and consultation.

“There is sufficient evidence of acupuncture’s value to expand its use into conventional medicine.”
