Acupuncture

Acupuncture has endured and evolved for thousands of years because of its elegant potency as a complete system of healing. Its aim is to bring into balance the root cause of anything that disturbs the body, mind, or soul. The life energy of the body (Qi or Chi) flows through a series of pathways called meridians. Along the meridians are located hundreds of distinct points, each having a particular action on the body-mind. These points are stimulated with pressure or extremely fine needles to produce a therapeutic effect.
