Looking after you
Acupuncture has been used for over 2500 years and is a great way to ensure that the body is working harmoniously. Acupuncture has a natural anti-inflammatory affect on the body and is beneficial for any pain condition whether it be acute or chronic. The technique involves placing thin acupuncture needles into the skin, causing the Qi to surface to the point.
Qi can be described as a deep, heavy, dull or tingling sensation. Different points are selected along different meridians depending on your condition, these acupuncture points can be described as trigger or energy points within the body.
