Acupuncture explained:
• Acupuncture has been actively used for well over 2000 years.
• Acupuncture is globally recognised for its many health benefits.
• Acupuncture treats the body as a whole and connects the mental and physical aspects of the body together.
In ancient China it was believed that a person in good health had an abundance of vital energy – known as ‘Qi’ (pronounced ‘chee’) flowing well throughout their body within different ‘channels’. Our world today is much more hectic, polluted and stressful – but our bodies still work on these same ancient principles, hence, our ‘Qi’ can easily become depleted or even stuck which ultimately causes a blockage or blockages within the body. Blockages can often leave the body in a state of ‘dis-ease’.
Acupuncture helps the body and our ‘Qi’ return to its natural balanced free-flowing state, often leaving the patient with much improved general feelings of well-being whilst feeling less stressed, alongside a reported reduction of their original symptoms. Acupuncture involves the insertion of very fine needles into specific points along the body which have been identified in affecting the flow of the body’s ‘Qi’. Acupuncture is also very effective in releasing tension in different areas of the body and in stimulating the release of the body’s natural pain receptor, ‘feel good’ hormones and chemicals.
