Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a technique in which practitioners stimulate specific points on the body, usually by inserting thin needles through the skin, which aims to correct imbalances in the flow of qi, a concept of energy in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), through meridians (ie, energy channels). . Studies suggest that acupuncture stimulates the release of the body’s natural painkillers and affects areas in the brain involved in processing pain. Acupuncture has been effectively used for the treatment of:
- Back pain
- Headache
- Migraine
- Sports injuries
- Anxiety
- Insomnia
- Digestive problems
- Menstrual problems
- Weight control
- Infertility
