Acupuncture
.
Acupuncture
is an ancient healing modality dating back over 4,000 years. A
correlation between stimulating specific areas of the skin and
the function of certain organs in the body evolved into the healing
system known as acupuncture.
.
There
are fourteen main channels, or "meridians", that run through the body
and conduct the flow of "qi" (Chi), or "vital energy". When dysfunction
or dis-ease is present in the body this flow is blocked.
.
By
stimulating selected points on these meridians the flow of
vital energy is restored and the body is brought back to a
state of homeostasis, where it can heal itself.
