Acupuncture
Acupuncture balances and harmonizes wholistically and is useful to:
- Prevent illness
- Maintain optimal health
- Treat most health conditions
Used in combination with Western medical treatments, acupuncture hastens and eases recovery.
Acupuncture is the oldest continuously practiced medical system in the world. It is used by 1/3 of the world as a primary health care system and is endorsed by the World Health Organization.
How It Works
This medical model, originating in ancient China, is based on natural laws that describe the flow of life energy in nature and in the human body. This life energy, called chi, courses through the body in channels similar to rivers that traverse the earth. Chi is the animating force missing when someone dies.
When chi is not full and flowing, illness can begin. Symptoms are your body's distress signals, warning of a problem. If the warning is not addressed, sooner or later more serious symptoms can occur. Acupuncture treats the deeper underlying cause and addresses symptoms as well.
