Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese practice designed to alleviate pain and support overall health. It involves placing needles along invisible meridians that traverse the body. Modern acupuncturists may also use lasers, magnets, and electrical pulses alongside traditional needles. Each meridian point carries a specific purpose and can help unblock and restore the flow of vital energy, or chi, through the body’s channels. By stimulating these meridians, an acupuncturist helps restore balance, promoting overall wellness for the patient.
