How Acupuncture Works
Acupuncture is a 2,000-year-old Chinese medical practice in which sterile, stainless-steel needles—sometimes as fine as a human hair—are inserted at specific points to alleviate pain or treat illness. Acupuncture points are defined as zones of electrical sensitivity; stimulation of these points can help with a variety of conditions.
Acupuncture is based on the belief that an energy force called qi (“chee”) flows through the body. Qi consists of two opposing forces, yin and yang, which must be in balance for optimal health. Imbalance can lead to illness or disorder.
Different styles of acupuncture may use thin needles inserted superficially or thicker needles inserted deeper into muscle tissue. Acupuncture is most commonly used for pain but can also aid headaches, nausea, anxiety, and depression. It should be used alongside other treatments and is considered safe when performed by a trained, certified practitioner using sterile needles.
Trust Twins Chiropractic and Physical Medicine to provide high-quality, safe acupuncture care tailored to your needs.
