Acupuncture

Acupunture is a 2,500 year old Traditonal Chinese medicine that removes energy imbalances and blockages in the body. Practitioners of acupuncture believe that there is a vital energy called qi (pronounced "chee") that flows through the body and between the skin surface and the internal organs, along channels or pathways called meridians. There are 12 major and eight minor meridians. Qi regulates the spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical harmony of the body by keeping the forces of yin and yang in balance. Yang is a principle of heat, activity, brightness, outwardness, and Yin represents coldness, passivity, darkness, interiority. The insertion of small needles into your body's meridians restores the natural flow of your vital energy and the harmonious balance of yin and yang.
