Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese medical practice that involves inserting fine needles into specific points on the body to balance the flow of energy (or "qi"). It is used to treat various physical and mental health conditions.
Acupuncture is based on the concept of balancing the body's energy by stimulating specific points along pathways called meridians. Modern science suggests that acupuncture stimulates nerves, muscles, and connective tissues, which may increase blood flow and activate the body’s natural painkillers.
Most people find acupuncture painless or experience only a mild tingling sensation when the needles are inserted. The needles are very fine, much thinner than those used for injections, and discomfort is usually minimal.
Acupuncture is commonly used to treat pain (back, neck, arthritis), headaches and migraines, stress and anxiety, digestive issues, fertility concerns, and insomnia. It is also used for general wellness and relaxation.
The number of sessions depends on the condition being treated. Some people may see benefits after just one session, while others may require a series of treatments over several weeks or months to achieve the desired results.
When performed by a trained and licensed practitioner, acupuncture is generally considered safe. The needles used are sterile, single-use, and FDA-approved in many countries, which minimizes the risk of infection or injury.
