Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese medical technique for relieving pain, curing disease and improving general health. It is an individualized treatment plan formulated to accelerate the body’s healing process, tailored to each person’s unique needs. It is performed with thin and flexible FDA-approved, sterile single-use needles on precise points on the body to relieve specific symptoms associated with many diseases. The needles are inserted into any points over the 12 basic meridians to maintain and restore balance in the body’s qi (energy flow.)
