What is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture is the insertion of very fine needles on the body's
surface, used to influence physiological functioning of the body
in a very safe, painless and effective way.  It strengthens and
improves overall functions, enhances immunity and enables you
to regain physical and emotional health.  
Acupuncture produces results by
re-establishing balance and ensuring
the continuous flow of vital life energy,
called Qi (pronounced "chee").


How does Acupuncture work?

The Naturopath will place fine, sterile needles at specific points
along the pathways of a person's body.  The insertion of the
needles unblocks the damming or obstruction of the body's
pathways.  This unblocking allows the Qi to freely circulate,
which eliminates pain and gives the body the ability to once gain
heal itself.
