Acupuncture

Acupuncture as a modality operates on the principle that all disease is caused by an issue with the free flow of Qi (vital life energy that sustains all living beings) throughout the body. This can be caused by either physical or emotional blockages or by an actual deficiency. Through the insertion of fine needles at specific points on the body, a traditional east Asian medicine practitioner s... Read More

Acupuncture as a modality operates on the principle that all disease is caused by an issue with the free flow of Qi (vital life energy that sustains all living beings) throughout the body. This can be caused by either physical or emotional blockages or by an actual deficiency. Through the insertion of fine needles at specific points on the body, a traditional east Asian medicine practitioner seeks to reestablish this free flow.

On a scientific level, acupuncture can activate the parasympathetic nervous system, releasing endorphins and helping to restore balance in the body. This will lead to better sleep, increased healing, and improved emotional well being.

It can be used to address both acute and chronic illness, and each treatment is fully personalized to the client’s needs, generally including a blend of modalities such as tuina, acupressure, gua sha or cupping.
