Traditional Chinese Acupuncture is a holistic health practice rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine, which dates back thousands of years. It involves the insertion of thin needles into specific points on the body to balance the flow of energy, or “Qi” (pronounced “chee”), and promote healing.

In TCM, Qi is the life force or energy flow circulating through the body along meridians.

These complementary forces need balancing for optimal health. Yin is cool and passive, while Yang is hot and active.

There are 12 main meridians in the body, each linked to an organ system. Qi flows through them, maintaining health.

These principles are used to diagnose and guide treatment. They include: Exterior vs. Interior, Hot vs Cold, Deficiency vs. Excess & Yin vs. Yang.
Traditional Chinese Acupuncture operates on the principle that energy, or Qi, flows through the body along specific pathways called meridians. By inserting fine needles into precise points on these meridians, acupuncture aims to restore the natural balance of Qi and enhance overall health.
This process helps to unblock any energy stagnation, improve circulation, and stimulate the body’s innate healing mechanisms. Acupuncture can influence various physiological systems, promoting relaxation, reducing pain, and supporting the body’s ability to heal itself.
