Acupuncture is an ancient Asian healing practice that has been practiced for over 4000 years. The practice uses very fine gold, silver, or steel needles, which are inserted (almost painlessly) along various “meridians” or energy channels throughout the body. Acupuncture stimulates the body’s subtle energy, a process that is believed to balance out the flow of subtle energy in the body to enhance its natural healing abilities.
Acupuncture is effective in treating:
· Headaches, migraines
· Depression, insomnia, stress, anxiety
· Addictions, withdrawl support
· Neck and back tension
· Poor circulation
· Stomachache, nausea, constipation, diarrhea, irritable bowel syndrome
· Insomnia, stress, anxiety
· Menstrual irregularities, menopause, impotence
· Chronic pain, arthritis
· Acne, eczema, skin rashes
· And much more…
