About Acupuncture
What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is a form of traditional Chinese medicine that involves inserting very thin needles into specific points on the body, known as acupoints, to stimulate healing, relieve pain, and balance the flow of energy (called “Qi”).
Traditional Beliefs
According to traditional Chinese medicine, Qi (pronounced “chee”) is the vital energy that flows through the body along channels called meridians.
When the flow of Qi is blocked or unbalanced, it can lead to illness or pain.
Acupuncture aims to restore the proper flow of Qi by stimulating key points (acupoints) on the body.
Modern Medical View
From a scientific perspective, acupuncture stimulates nerves, muscles, and connective tissue, which may boost the body’s natural painkillers (like endorphins).
It is thought to increase blood circulation, relax tight muscles, and help regulate the nervous system.
It’s often used to treat chronic pain, headaches, back pain, stress, and insomnia.
