Acupuncture works to help maintain your body’s equilibrium.
It involves the insertion of very fine needles into specific points on the body to regulate the flow of ‘qi’, your body’s vital energy.
For a number of lifestyle and environmental reasons, qi can become disturbed, depleted or blocked, which can result in some symptoms of pain and illness.
In certain instances, traditional acupuncture can be an effective therapy to help restore balance and promote physical and emotional harmony.

Treatment is aimed at the root of your condition as well as your main symptoms.
This approach helps with resolving your problem and enhancing your feeling of well-being.
You may notice other niggling problems resolve as your main health complaint
improves.
Many people come to acupuncture for help with specific symptoms or to relieve
specific pains like osteoarthritis of the knee. Some use acupuncture because they
feel generally unwell but have no obvious diagnosis. Others choose acupuncture
simply to enhance their feeling of well-being. Acupuncture is considered suitable for
all ages.
Acupuncture originated in China and other far eastern cultures where it still features
in mainstream healthcare, both as a stand-alone therapy and in combination with
conventional western medicine. Acupuncture is now widely used and accepted all over
the world.
In the UK more and more people are finding out what acupuncture can do for them.
