Acupuncture works by restoring balance to the body. By removing blockages to the flow of qi or energy around the body, acupuncture can rebalance all the organ systems of the body and the nervous system. Acupuncture can help you feel calm and relaxed and will help your body heal itself. Acupuncture works in conjunction with Chinese herbs. Acupuncture improves the flow of energy around the body whilst the herbal medicine improves the amount of energy.
Very fine stainless steel needles (single-use) are placed in key points around the body to stimulate the flow of qi. Most people don’t feel the needle going in, but report a dull tingling or pressure sensation around the needle which occurs when the qi is moving. The treatment should leave you feeling relaxed and energised.
