Acupuncture
Acupuncture has been continuously practiced in the Asia,
mainly in China, Korea, and Japan for over 3000 years. It was
introduced to the Western world about three centuries ago, and
is now practiced throughout the world.
Although the introduction of this highly effective form of
medicine to America was relatively recent, it has become one of
the fastest growing forms of health care in the United States. Its
effectiveness in healing wide range of conditions with few side
effects and relatively low cost contributes to its rise in popularity.
Acupuncture treatment is administered by inserting fine
needles into the skin at specific points along the pathway of
energy in order to restore balance and harmony to the body.
This vital energy, or Qi (pronounced chee) moves through the
body in precise channels supporting functions of the body,
mind and spirit.
When Qi energy is obstructed or moving disharmoniously, the
resulting imbalance begins to surface in the form of specific
symptoms. The gentle insertion of hair thin needles at specific
points along the channels of Qi energy, helps restore harmony.
Patients are often amazed by the fact that such subtle
treatments can resolve various symptoms and improve energy
and vitality.
