The Asian technique of acupuncture has been used in traditional medicines for centuries. It involves the use of thin metal needles being lightly pricked at specific spots on the patient's body. Traditional acupuncture involves balancing an individual's Chi, or life force, as it travels through the body's 300+ meridians, or Chi pathways. Acupuncture involves symmetry and equilibrium of the body's life force and is structured on the belief that opening up these pathways within the body will allow a patient's life force to flow more smoothly and efficiently to a vital organ or region. |

Acupuncture needles are often stimulated with mild electrical impulses or enhanced with herbs and medicinal compounds. This technique has been used to help people suffering from physical and emotional distress. Despite the mystery surrounding it, acupuncture is a safe procedure when performed by a skilled and certified therapist. Make sure your therapist is using sterile needles for your procedure. |
