Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a form of medicine that involves inserting very thin needles into specific points on the body to promote healing and balance.
How It Works (Traditionally and Scientifically)
Traditional View: Acupuncture restores the flow of qi, or life energy, through pathways called meridians.
Modern View: It may stimulate nerves, muscles, and connective tissue, which can boost blood flow and trigger the body’s natural painkillers.
