TRADITIONAL ACUPUNCTURE
Acupuncture is the insertion of fine needles into the body at specific points shown as effective in the treatment of health problems. These points have been mapped by the Chinese for over 4000 years and recent electromagnetic research has confirmed their locations. This elegant and sophisticated system of medicine regulates the flow of Qi (pronounced Chee) in the meridians and organs, removes blockages, strengthens the body's protective Qi and lessens the virulence of excesses. Once this is achieved, the balance of Yin and Yang is restored and the body returns to a state of health. The needles used in acupuncture are so fine that the prick as it goes through the skin is barely felt.
