Acupuncture is the inserting of fine needles at specific points on the body to stimulate our innate healing abilities. A growing body of evidence-based clinical research is discovering how the body responds to acupuncture, and its benefits for a wide range of common health conditions.
- Safe effective relief from symptoms
- Improved overall health
- May help reduce use of medications and their
associated side effects
- Deep feeling of relaxation and well-being
Many people have acupuncture to relieve specific aches and pains, such as osteoarthritis of the knee, tension headaches, migraines and low back pain, or for common health problems like an overactive bladder. Other people choose acupuncture when they can feel their bodily functions are out of balance, but they have no obvious diagnosis. And many have regular treatments because they find it so beneficial and relaxing.
