Acupuncture Therapy – Lakeshore
Acupuncture is based on an ancient Asian healing practice that has been in use for thousands of years. Ancient practitioners of acupuncture held the belief that energy in the body flowed along meridians between specific acupoints. This energy flow is referred to as qi (pronounced “chee”). When the flow of energy through qi is interrupted, pain and illness are the result.
Modern Acupuncture – What You Should Know
Acupuncture is a safe, effective, and drug-free therapy that has been clinically proven to relieve pain. It involves the insertion of thin, sterile needles into the skin. Once inserted, the needles are stimulated either through the acupuncturist’s movements or with electricity. This process activates your body’s natural healing response.
When a needle is inserted, most people report feeling minimal discomfort, but a sensation of pressure or aching around the needlepoint is common. This pressure is a sign that your central nervous system is releasing chemicals that prompt your body’s cells to begin healing.
Beyond pain relief, acupuncture has been found to treat and prevent various diseases, and it can also restore balance to the body. It has been used as an effective way to enhance fertility, and the World Health Organization has identified over 120 conditions that acupuncture can effectively treat.
