Acupuncture

How does acupuncture work?

Qi (or chi) is the vital energy that flows through us, which consists of the opposing forces of yin and yang. It flows through 14 major channels known as meridians that link every part of the body and all the organs. To restore and maintain a positive state of health, this energy must flow freely and evenly and the yin and yang must be perfectly balanced.

If the flow of Qi is blocked or your body experiences stress (either physical or emotional) the meridians become unbalanced , resulting in illness. Single-use, sterile, threadlike needles are inserted into specific points to rebalance the energy.
