Acupuncture
Acupuncture
is an important component of Traditional Chinese medicine
used in the prevention and treatment of disease. It was developed
in China over 2,500 years ago and was based upon the principle
that there was the pattern of Qi through the body, which was
essential for good health. There are 14 major Qi pathways,
(meridians) which are connected with specific internal organs/
systems. By inserting fine needles (only about three times
the thickness of a human hair and much finer than the hypodermic
needles used to give injections) at specific points (acupoints)
within the meridian system, the energy is rebalanced. The
needles cause only minor sensation, like a small prick, as
the needle is inserted. Then, your practitioner stimulates
the needle, causing you to feel some more sensation. Your
practitioner will provide personal care during the treatment
to be sure the procedure is comfortable for you.
