What is Acupuncture?Acupuncture is one part of the ancient practice of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Acupuncture treats a variety of conditions by triggering specific points on the skin with needles, it is a method which stimulates nerve-rich areas of the skin surface in order to influence tissues, organs, gland, and different functions of the body. TCM theory says that the human body has more than 400 acupuncture points connected by pathways or meridians. These pathways create flow of energy or Qi (pronounced Chee) through the body that is responsible for overall health. Disruption of this flow of energy can cause disease. By applying acupuncture to certain points, it is thought to improve the flow of Qi, thereby improving health.
