Acupuncture is a complex branch of ancient Chinese medicine that has been in practice for over 3000 years. To simplify the principles of acupuncture; there are 2 major aspects; Meridian and Chi (Qi) Energy.
First , acupuncture works on 14 major energy channels called meridians that course through our body from the top of our head to the
bottom of our feet, including internal organs.
Second, acupuncture works on energy called Chi or Qi, which circulates via the meridians that runs to all parts of our body. Chi energy is a vital force that separates the living from the dead. When this Chi energy is balanced and is able to flow freely, we are in good health. When the Chi energy is stagnated, misdirected, or in derangement- pain, illness, and dysfunction will be the outcome.
An acupuncturist performing acupuncture-the precise placement of needles along the surface of the body- will stimulate certain points called "acupoints" along specific meridians which will restored the normal balance and flow of Chi energy. Once this balance and flow of Chi energy is restore, our body will start the process of repairing itself and will return to good health.
These are a few conditions/disorders most frequently treated: pain throughout all parts of the body, detox for chemical dependency, wellness care, blood pressure problems (high or low), allergies, asthma, CTS (carpal tunnel syndrome), headache, insomnia, sciatica, stomach problems, internal organ problems, gynecological dysfunctions, poor circulation, cold feet/hands, bursitis, dizziness (vertigo), indigestion, and many, many more.
