Service Description

HOW ACUPUNCTURE WORKS? Acupuncture is throughout to act on meridians. In the form of the treatment most widely practiced in the U.S., hair-thin needles are inserted into the skin at specific points along the meridians to redirect to unblock stagnant qi. These so-called acupoints correspond to different organs or systems in the body. For example, inserting a needle at a point inside the forearm known as PC6 is intended to treat nausea; needling lv3, on top of the foot, is meant to help with motor function.
