ACUPUNCTURE
Your body has channels of energy that follow a very specific course.
This is the classical Chinese explanation of acupuncture. These channels are called meridians and can be affected and influenced by needling the areas along their pathway. The acupuncture needles help stimulate these channels and allow the energy of the meridians to flow freely. This helps the body begin the process of healing. Acupuncture also stimulates the nervous system and releases endorphins throughout the body.
What Does Acupuncture Feel Like?
This is a very common question. People can have different experiences with acupuncture. Some people report feeling energized after their treatment while others become deeply relaxed. The sensation of the needles once they are inserted also tend to vary from person to person. Many people aren’t even aware that the needles have been inserted while other people claim to feel energy moving around the acupuncture needle.
