Traditional acupuncture works to maintain the bodys equilibrium by focusing on all aspects of wellbeing, physical, mental, and emotional.

According to traditional Chinese philosophy, our health is dependant on the bodys motivating energy moving in a smooth and balanced way through a series of channels beneath the skin. This energy is known as qi.

The flow of qi can be disturbed by any number of factors. These include emotional states such as anxiety, anger, or grief, as well as poor nutrition, hereditary factors, infections and trauma. When the qi is unbalanced, illness may result.

Fine needles are inserted at chosen points along the channels of energy. The aim is to stimulate the bodys own healing response and restore its natural balance.

Treatment is aimed at the root of your condition, as well as your symptoms. This approach can lead to a more permanent resolution of your problem.
