Acupuncture, not just needles!

Acupuncture, one of the oldest systems of healing in the world originated in China some 5000 years ago. The human body has over 2,000 acupuncture points connected by 20 pathways called meridians. These meridians conduct energy, or Qi, between the surface of the body and its internal organs. The Qi includes and directly influences the spiritual (“life energy”), mental, emotional, and physical aspects of life.

When pathways are obstructed, deficient, excessive, or unbalanced, this causes illness. Acupuncture restores the balance of Qi throughout the body, restoring health to the mind and body.

Acupuncture can be performed with needles, essential oils, colored lights, seed beads, magnets, or direct pressure placed on specific acupuncture points based on your condition. Acupuncture needles are hair-thin and designed not to damage the skin. When practiced by a trained acupuncturist, acupuncture is extremely safe. Remember it may take several visits to see significant improvement of your condition.

In the 1970s, the World Health Organization recognized the ability of acupuncture to treat nearly four dozen common ailments including:

• Neuromusculoskeletal conditions

• Circulatory disorders

• Respiratory disorders

• Gastrointestinal conditions

• Emotional & psychological disorders

• Addictions to alcohol, nicotine & other drugs
