About Acupuncture

160601Kathy_030

According to Chinese medical philosophy, energy or “Qi” circulates throughout the body along specific pathways or meridians. Along these pathways there are specific points that allow access to various body organs and systems. Pain and illness is caused by an imbalance or blockage of the pathways.

Acupuncture TREATS these blockages allowing the body to circulate energy the way it properly should.

“There is evidence that acupuncture influences the production of and distribution of a great many neurotransmitters and neuromodulators, and that this in turn alters the perception of pain.”

— David Eisenberg, M.D., Clinical Research Fellow at Harvard Medical School
