Acupuncture is an integral part of traditional Oriental medicine, a complete system of heath care practiced for over 3000 years. All life forms hold a vital energy, called Qi (pronounced chee.) This vital energy flows along pathways called meridians. Acupuncture points are located along these pathways, each point having a specific effect on Qi. Very fine needles are inserted into the skin to stimulate specific points on the body for therapeutic purposes. This practice balances the movement of Qi in the body to restore health. |
