Acupuncture is a 3000-years-old holistic health technique that stems from Traditional Chinese Medicine practices, in which specific points are stimulated in the body by inserting thin needles into the skin, which in-turn improves the body’s function and promotes the natural self-healing process by stimulating specific anatomic sites–commonly referred to as acupuncture points or acupoints. These are patterns of energy which flow (Qi) through the body that are essential for health. Disruptions of this flow are believed to be responsible for diseases. Thus the aim is to restore the balance of Qi(energy).
