Acupuncture is a healing art and science which analyzes the entire human being in body-mind-spirit. The basic theory of acupuncture is based on a life force energy called Ch\u2019i. The Acupuncturist is trained to recognize the process of health and illness, and works with herbs and needles to restore the flow of Ch\u2019i. If the energy is not flowing properly, then there exists disharmony and imbalance. This is illness.<\/p>\n<p>Acupuncture is a safe and effective treatment for countless ailments and symptoms including, but not limited to, intestinal dysfunction, loss of energy, weight management, addiction, sleep disturbances and musculoskeletal injury.<\/p>\n<h5>\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2889 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.naturehealthclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/acupuncture-needles.jpg?resize=675%2C388\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 675px) 100vw, 675px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/naturehealthclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/acupuncture-needles.jpg?w=848 848w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/naturehealthclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/acupuncture-needles.jpg?resize=300%2C172 300w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/naturehealthclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/acupuncture-needles.jpg?resize=768%2C441 768w\" alt=\"acupuncture-needles\" width=\"675\" height=\"388\" \/><\/h5>\n<p>Acupuncture<\/p>\n<p>A variety of scientifically proven physiological changes occur in the body during acupuncture treatments:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u2022\tinhibits pain signals to the brain<\/li>\n<li>\u2022\tstimulates production of natural hormones<\/li>\n<li>\u2022\timproved nerve conduction<\/li>\n<li>\u2022\treduces inflammation<\/li>\n<li>\u2022\timproved blood flow<\/li>\n<li>\u2022\tstress reduction<\/li>\n<li>\u2022\tdecreases muscle tension<\/li>\n<li>\u2022\tdecreases scar tissue<\/li>\n<li>\u2022\tpromotes healing<\/li>\n<li>\u2022\trestores range of motion<\/li>\n<li>\u2022\timproves immune system<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>How is Medical Acupuncture Performed?<\/p>\n<p>Target structures are selected based on the examination findings and needles are inserted with the aim of stimulating a healing response.
