ACUPUNCTURE

Acupuncture is an ancient therapy that has been around for over 2000 years. It is now being integrated in many hospitals and clinics around the world. It is a system that views each individual as a whole, restoring balance to the entire system.

Acupuncture has been highly recognized by the National Institute of Health (NIH) as well as by The World Health Organization for its benefits in treating pain and other health related concerns, including the use, as an adjunct treatment for Cancer patients.

Its successful use for pain management results from stimulating acupoints which release endorphins that are natural pain killers in the body. It does this by inserting very thin, hair-like needles into specific acupoints (energetic pathways) By stimulating appropriate acupuncture points along these meridians, the energy is regulated, and health is restored. Acupuncture is not painful.

Many Acupuncturists also use Herbal remedies, Moxibustion, nutrition, meditation, breathing exercise and other methodologies in their practice to further support the natural healing system within the body, and improve and maintain general health.
