 Acupuncture
What is Acupuncture?
The theory and practice of acupuncture is based on
Oriental medicine (also known as traditional Chinese
medicine), a comprehensive natural health care
system that has been used in Asian countries for
thousands of years to preserve health and diagnose,
treat, and prevent illness.
How does Acupuncture work?
Acupuncture treats health conditions by stimulating
"acu-points" found at specific locations on the
surface of the body. Acupuncturists stimulate the
acu-points by inserting very thin needles through
the
skin to produce physiological effects.
Is Acupuncture safe?
Today's Acupuncturists use sterile, one time use,
disposable needles.
Is Acupuncture painful?
Acupuncture is generally not painful. You will
generally feel a heavy, dull sensation upon
insertion. Most people find acupuncture relaxing and
it in not unusual for patients to fall asleep during
a treatment.
