Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a time-tested medical modality originating in ancient China and a core component of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). TCM also includes Chinese herbal medicine, dietary therapy, cupping, moxibustion, Tui-Na (Chinese medical massage), and related practices.
​
Used worldwide, acupuncture supports healing and symptom management across a wide range of conditions. It works through the stimulation of specific points on the body to engage the nervous, vascular, endocrine, immune, and other regulatory systems, supporting the body’s inherent capacity for self-regulation and repair.
​
These points are most commonly stimulated using very fine, sterile, single-use needles inserted shallowly and safely, and can also be engaged through techniques such as manual therapy, energy-based methods, and other non-needle approaches.
