Acupuncture is one of several ancient chinese medical procedures.It is believed to help relieve pain and treat diseases by restoring the normal flow of energy through the body.

A typical acupuncture treatment involves the insertion of hair-thin needles into specific points on the body to elicit a healing response. The sterilised and disposable needles are so thin that most people feel nothing more than a slight tingling sensation when they are inserted.

The acupuncture points are mostly located along the meridian through which Qi flows. Acupuncture moves this energy by techniques of ascending, descending, reinforcing, reducing, warming and clearing to create the desired response. Each treatment lasts approximately 5 to 10 minutes
