Answers to Your Frequently Asked Questions

Acupuncture

What is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture is a form of therapy whose goal is to balance the flow of the internal energy of the body — or what the Chinese call Qi (pronounced chi).

Acupuncture

How does acupuncture work?

It relies on the insertion and manipulation of very fine needles into points on the body that have been mapped out for thousands of years.

 

These points are organized on meridians or energy channels that correspond to what the Chinese refer to as internal organ systems.


Acupuncture

How is acupuncture performed?

The acupuncturist manipulates the flow of energy in the channels depending on the imbalance or condition that is being treated. The needles are sometimes manipulated manually, with mild electrical stimulation, or even with heat.
