As part of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Acupuncture aims to restore and maintain one's health. It is a very effective method of treatment for a large variety of medical conditions, symptoms and syndromes. The Acupuncturist inserts very fine sterilized, stainless steel needles into specific points along the meridian lines to promote the body's ability to heal itself by restoring the balance to the flow of "
qi" (vital energy).
