Acupuncture is an ancient form of natural healing from China, practiced for over 3,000 years. It became known in the United States in 1971 when a New York Times reporter shared how Chinese doctors used fine needles to ease his post-surgery pain.
In acupuncture, very fine, sterile, single-use needles are gently placed at specific points on the body, called acupoints. This stimulates the flow of vital energy — known as Qi or Chi (Simplified: 气 | Traditional: 氣)—to restore balance, relieve pain, and support the body’s natural healing process. Acupuncture is often used for stress relief, pain management, boosting immunity, and improving overall wellness.
Treatments are safe, hygienic, and typically painless, with many clients feeling calm and relaxed during their session.
