Acupuncture, practiced for over 2500 years, is increasingly popular due to its ability to provide support treatment for various health conditions.
FREMONT, CA: The treatment known as acupuncture targets disruptions in the flow of qi, the life force that governs mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual wellbeing. The idea that life energy moves through the body's "meridians" is the foundation of this theory. To remove obstructions in these meridians, physical pressure is given to ashi trigger points, also known as acupuncture sites. Acupuncture is the insertion of thin, disposable needles by a practitioner into the acupuncture sites associated with a particular condition. After being cleaned, these needles, which are positioned throughout the body's energy meridians, encourage the flow of Qi throughout the body. During the therapy, the needles are rotated or electrically stimulated and left in place for periods ranging from five to thirty minutes.
According to neuroscience, acupuncture stimulates the muscles, connective tissue, and nerves at certain sites. This promotes blood flow and releases endogenous painkillers, which help the body, recover it.
For people who have dietary allergies or medication sensitivities, acupuncture provides a drug-free, drug-free alternative to contemporary painkillers. When administered by a licensed professional, acupuncture is safe and has few negative effects. It can be used to treat various illnesses and is complementary and frequently used in conjunction with Chinese herbal treatment. A holistic approach to wellbeing is encouraged by acupuncture, which treats the underlying cause of the illness as opposed to its symptoms. In contrast to contemporary pharmaceuticals concentrating on symptom-based remedies, it can diagnose and cure various diseases. Acupuncture provides a comprehensive wellbeing approach and is a safe and effective substitute for modern pharmaceuticals.
