What is an Acupuncture treatment?
The Acupuncture treatment consists of inserting extremely fine needles under the skin into precise anatomic points in order to balance the body’s energy and relieve the symptoms experienced. The needles are sterile and because they are as fine as a hair, patients barely feel the insertion and can actually describe different sensations when the energy is activated in the channel.
