About Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine
Acupuncture and herbs aim to restore the body’s own capacity to heal itself.
Acupuncture is a part of Chinese Medicine, along with Tuina massage and Herbal Medicine. It uses very fine disposable needles to stimulate the body’s own physiological and emotional health.
How Does Acupuncture work?
It is mainly known for pain relief, but many other conditions can be helped. Chinese Medicine views the body as its own eco system, constantly functioning, producing, clearing and fixing itself. With disturbances through lifestyle, injuries or constitutional factors, balance is upset and illness follows.What are the Benefits of Acupuncture?
