How does it work and can it help me?

Acupuncture is a form of alternative medicine in which thin needles are inserted into the body. It is a key component of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). According to the neurohumoral theory, Acupuncture may stimulate the release of various neurochemical substances, which can have an analgesic and overall relaxing effect.

The history of acupuncture

Acupuncture can be dated back almost 5000 years with the earliest Chinese Medical text available around 305 B.C. Acupuncture was practiced and refined throughout the following hundreds of years and then brought into the west during the 1970’s.
