What is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture is an alternative healthcare treatment that uses acupuncture needles to restore the flow of energy throughout your body. This practice has been around for thousands of years. The earliest acupuncturists believed that if the energy in your body didn't flow well, it caused pain or illness.

How Does Acupuncture Work?

Acupuncture works by stimulating certain points on your body that correspond to different organs using very thin needles. These points are usually called acupuncture points or acupoints. This stimulation helps to improve the function of those organs and restore the flow of energy in your body. When the energy is flowing smoothly, you'll feel better both physically and emotionally.

An acupuncturist first takes a look at your tongue and will examine your pulse. The color, shape, texture, and coating of the tongue as well as the strength of your pulse can tell a lot about how healthy you are, even before they use any needles. They'll also ask you about how you're feeling and what's going on in your life, including stress levels or other emotions that could be impacting your health.

After taking all of this into account, our acupuncturist will choose the needles they need and start treatment. Most people feel a sense of relaxation and well-being after treatment.
