How Does It Work?
Acupuncture operates on the principle of Qi, the energy that flows freely throughout our bodies through a system of channels called the meridians. When these channels become blocked, sickness and soreness can occur.
Treatment aims to clear these blockages through opening up the meridians, allowing Qi to flow freely once more and restoring wellness. Fine needles are inserted into specific points along the meridians to stimulate energy flow and promote healing.
Does The Process of Acupuncture Hurt?
The treatment is not painful. The needles used are very fine, and most people experience only a mild tingling sensation or no discomfort at all. Many clients find the experience deeply relaxing, and with regular treatments, you may notice improved sleep, reduced stress, and enhanced overall wellbeing.
What Are Some of The More Common Complaints That Can Be Assisted?
Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine can assist with a wide range of health concerns, including:
- Muscle and joint pain
- Skin complaints
- Headaches and migraines
- Mood issues including stress, anxiety, and depression
- Digestive disorders
