what is acupuncture?

Acupuncture is part of a medical system and integrated approach to health maintenance and treatment of disease.

How does acupuncture work?

Qi is the internal energy which circulates through the body along central pathways known as meridians.

The obstruction or deficiency of Qi will eventually lend to pain and illness.

Acupuncture stimulates the points along the meridians to adjust and balance the flow of Qi and restore health.
