| ACUPUNCTURE | ||||
|
||||
| Acupuncture is the ancient Chinese practice of inserting thin needles
in to specific points of the body to improve circulation and reduce pain.
It is believed by practitioners of acupuncture that ‘qi’ or
‘vital energy’ is redirected by the acupuncture process thereby
helping the body heal itself. Pain is the manifestation of blockage in the
energy flow and acupuncture is meant to break up the blockage. This philosophy
is clear in the one of the main axioms of acupuncture that states ‘no
pain, no blockage. no blockage, no pain’.
The acupuncture treatment is carried out by an acupuncturist who is schooled in the accurate placement of the needles along the 12 main and 8 secondary meridians located throughout the body. The acupuncturist exams and questions the patient at the time of treatment to decide where to place the needles to achieve the most benefit. Browse >> Health |
