Acupuncture
Acupuncture has been used for a great many centuries. The practice involves inserting and manipulating delicate hair-thin needles into meridian points, channels guiding the flow of “qi” (or “life energy”) on the body. The purpose of acupuncture is generally to stimulate energy points and to balance the energy flow, to alleviate specific symptoms such as pain and discomfort, to activate your body repair systems to restore health, and for a whole array of therapeutic purposes.
Depending on the type and severity of the symptoms, acupuncture is often more effective in conjunction with moxibustion and cupping. Moxibustion is a small, cone-shaped herb called moxa placed on top of an acupuncture needle and ignited to allow the herbal effect to penetrate through the needle deep into the treatment area. The purpose of moxibustion is to strengthen the blood, stimulate the flow of qi, and maintain general health. Cupping employs various sized glass cups, removing oxygen inside the glass by burning a flammable substance inside, and anchoring the vacuum glass onto the skin. The cupping process open up the skin’s pores, stimulate the flow of blood, balances and realigns the flow of qi, breaks up obstructions, and creates an avenue for toxins to be drawn out of the body.
An acupuncture service is combined with osteopathic massage; you get the best of both worlds. Acupuncture deals with problems all over the body using the concept of connected by meridians. The osteopathic manipulation maintains the balanced flow of energy using massage and acupressure points.
