ACUPUNCTURE has been practiced for thousands of years, placing it among the oldest healing practices in the world. It is based on the concept that disease results from the disruption of chi - vital energy and imbalances of yin and yang.
Acupuncture stimulates specific points on the body by a variety of techniques, including the insertion of sterile hair-thin metal needles through the skin. This removes blockages in the chi, restores balance, and enhances immunity in order to maintain health.
According to World Health Organization (WHO) acupuncture is effective in treating a wide variety of conditions including:
