Acupuncture
Acupuncture is the ancient practice of stimulating points on the body to elicit a healing response. There are many different styles of acupuncture and each has its own theories and techniques. In general, very small needles are inserted into the body at precise locations to stimulate an acupuncture point along a meridian or to manipulate a specific anatomical structure. This produces a local, distal, or systemic healing response in the body. The exact biological mechanisms of acupuncture are still unclear but fMRI studies have shown that acupuncture has direct effects on the nervous system. This interaction allows us to influence many of the body systems and functions, including digestion, hormones, pain signaling, etc.
Acupuncture is extremely safe when performed by a properly trained, licensed acupuncturist (L.Ac.). L.Ac.’s spend thousands of hours learning theory and practicing techniques before getting their license. Be sure to seek out an L.Ac. with the proper credentials when you are ready to try acupuncture. If another type of practitioner claims to be able to perform acupuncture, you will likely not receive the same level of care and it could be a dangerous situation.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us. We're happy to discuss your case and let you know if acupuncture would be a good fit for you.
