About Acupuncture
Acupuncture is part of an integrated system of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that has a history of development dating back thousands of years in China.Since our body is interrelated as a whole through the subtle network (Meridian), Acupuncture takes a wholistic approach to understand normal function and disease processes and focuses as much on the prevention of illness as on the treatment.
When we are healthy, an abundant supply of Qi or “life energy” flows through the body’s meridians. If the flow of qi in the meridians becomes blocked or there is an inadequate supply of qi, then the body fails to maintain harmony and balance and disease or illness follows. This can result from stress, overwork, poor diet, external pathogens, weather and environmental conditions, and other lifestyle factors.
