HOW DOES ACUPUNCTURE WORK?
The Ancient Art Of Wellbeing
According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, Acupuncture works to restore the body's ability to heal itself. By stimulating certain points we move the blood and Qi within the body to eliminate blockages, which are causing pain or imbalances. It is a 2000 year old complementary medical practice with he aim of gaining balance within our emotional and physical beings.
“If there is free flow, there is no pain. If there is pain, there is no free flow.”
THE FLOW OF QI
In acupuncture we use hair-thin disposable needles at specific points of the body to allow a better flow of Qi and to harmonise the bodys energetic system. The Qi (Energy) travels through 12 meridians within our body. Diet, Lifestyle, Emotions and Chronic Conditions can affect the free flow of Qi, leading to pain or disease. With acupuncture we can release any stagnations and allow the body to heal itself.
