What is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture is an ancient healing practice rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that has been used for over 3,000 years. This time-tested therapy involves the insertion of ultra-thin, sterile needles into specific points on the body to stimulate the body's natural healing processes and restore balance.

According to traditional Chinese medicine theory, acupuncture works by balancing the flow of energy or life force, known as qi (pronounced "chee"), which flows through pathways called meridians in your body. From a modern medical perspective, acupuncture is believed to stimulate nerves, muscles, and connective tissue, which may boost the activity of the body's natural painkillers and increase blood flow.

The number of sessions needed varies depending on your condition and individual response, but many people notice improvements within the first few treatments. Tom Duncan, L.Ac. will work with you to develop a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and health goals.
