WHAT IS ACUPUNCTURE

Acupuncture, simply stated, is a health science which is used to sucessfully treat both pain and dysfunction in the body.
At first glimpse, Acupuncture appears strange; as its primary notoriety is the utilization of needles placed in the skin at various locations to relieve pain or affect a body part.

Early physicians discovered there is an energy network traversing just below the surface of the skin which communicates from the exterior to the internal organs and structures at over 1,000 "Acupoints" on the body.  This energy works in harmony with the body's circulatory, nervous, muscular, digestive, genitourinary and all other systems of the body.  When this vital energy becomes blocked ot weakened, an effect in a body system or anatomic location becomes evident.  Stimulation of one or a combination of key "Acupoints" on the body may restore harmony to the affected area.
