Acupuncture & Trigger Point Dry Needling;
Chinese Medicine & Functional Medicine
What isAcupuncture?
Acupuncture is a powerful therapy that enhances the body’s natural healing system. Single use, hair-thin, surgical stainless steel needles are inserted into the surface of the skin to stimulate acupuncture points throughout the body to access a system of channels called meridians. Acupuncture point prescription is individualized to the needs of each client, addressing the underlying insufficiencies and stagnations that are causing the body's symptoms.
How does it work?
The meridians can be thought of as highways that are distributed throughout the body’s anatomical structures (muscles, fascia, bones etc). Various fluids such as blood, lymph and hormones travel along these highways to irrigate and nourish the surrounding tissues. The ancient Chinese believed that Qi or ‘vital life force’ also travels along these highways to provide the energy needed to regulate and maintain the body’s bio mechanisms. When fluids or Qi gets blocked within the meridians it creates an imbalance that can lead to a variety of health problems. Stimulating specific points along the meridians disperses blockages and mobilizes the body’s natural pain relieving substances, anti-inflammatory chemicals, hormones and immune enhancers, ultimately balancing the body's energy systems and fostering its self-healing capabilities.
