Acupuncture, when performed properly, can bring the body into balance and assist the healing process through the regulation of qi – energy, blood and fluid in the body.
Acupuncture removes blockages; stimulates the immune system; harmonises emotion; improves blood flow; reduces pain and inflammation and stimulates healing in the body’s tissues. It is used to treat a range of conditions, such as lower back pain, infertility and depression, and to prevent illness, aid recovery and promote general well being.
Acupuncture is not widely available through the NHS and most clients pay for their treatment.
