What is acupuncture?
Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medical practice that involves the insertion of thin needles into specific points on the body. It is a key component of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), which has been practiced for over 2,000 years. By restoring homeostasis, acupuncture can alleviate pain, reduce stress, boost immune function, and promote overall well-being
​
Acupuncture is used to address a wide range of health conditions. Common applications include pain management (such as back pain, migraines, and arthritis), stress reduction, fertility support, digestive issues, and respiratory conditions. It is often used both as a standalone treatment and in conjunction with other therapeutic approaches.
​
While traditional Chinese medicine explains acupuncture in terms of balancing Qi and vital energy, Western perspectives often interpret its effects in neurological and physiological terms. Acupuncture is thought to influence the nervous system, modulate pain signals, release endorphins (natural pain relievers), and promote various biochemical and physiological responses.
​
Acupuncture has gained recognition and acceptance in many parts of the world. Numerous studies have investigated its efficacy, particularly in pain management and certain health conditions. With ongoing research and benefits, acupuncture is increasingly integrated into mainstream healthcare practices.
