What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is part of the ancient practice of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) which has evolved over thousands of years to prevent, diagnose and treat disease. It involves placing hair-thin needles into the skin on certain points of a meridian of the body to stimulate specific areas, balance energies and direct the flow of qi energy to support overall health, bodily functions and movement.
