Acupuncture
Acupuncture is an ancient, well proven method of encouraging the body to promote natural healing and improve functioning. This is accomplished by using fine needles inserted at precise acupuncture points to release obstructions to the flow of energy through the body. The improved energy flow helps to nourish the various organs and correct imbalances, stimulating the body's natural healing abilities and promoting physical and emotional well-being. Medical acupuncture simply refers to acupuncture performed by a physician also trained in conventional medicine.
