Introduction to Acupuncture

Acupuncture works by inserting very fine sterile needles into ‘points’ on the body in order to contact and work with the body’s natural energy (Qi) to heal and balance the body.

The practice of acupuncture has been developed over thousands of years and can aid a vast number of complaints, both physical and mental-emotional.  Acupuncture can also lead to general feelings of improvements in health and well being.

Acupuncture carried out by qualified practitioners is very safe and side effects and complications are rare.
