About the Business

Acupuncture is a form of traditional Chinese medicine which involves the insertion of very fine needles at key points (known as acupuncture points) into the body.

The ancient Chinese believed that there is a universal life energy called Qi (pronounced chee) that is present in every living creature. Qi circulates throughout the body and vital organs along specific pathways called channels or meridians.

There is increasing understanding of how acupuncture works in Western medical terms. Modern studies have revealed that the nervous system is stimulated by the needles, releasing chemicals in the muscles, spinal cord and brain, which reduce our experience of pain and influence the body's own internal regulating system.
