What is acupuncture?

Acupuncture uses very thin needles to help the body achieve a state equilibrium or homeostasis. There are a number of energetic channels, pathways for life energy or “qi” in the body. Acupuncture is the practice of releasing and relieving that which has become stagnant and nourishing that which is deficient in the body, thereby bringing balance to the body. This in turn allows the body’s natural healing system to kick in more efficiently.

Our bodies are brilliant, intuitive and natural healers; if we allow the body space to heal it will naturally come home to itself, come home to vibrant health and peace of mind.
