What is Acupuncture? Although most of us have heard of acupuncture,  we still have many questions about this 2000-year-old practice and since it is not in our culture in the United States, we have a hard time understanding the way acupuncture is commonly explained. This amazing and whole Health System was created through observation of nature’s cycles and the five elements (wood, fire, earth, metal, and water), acupuncture is based on the idea that our bodies mirror the environment.Ancient practitioners observed that touching certain areas of the body affected other parts, leading to the discovery of points that influence specific organs and through this observation and discovering strategic points, they applied needles, ( back then, they used bone, then later steel)  in the body, they could manipulate the imbalances bringing the body back into balance. Today, advancements in neuroscience are helping us understand the science behind acupuncture.

How Does Acupuncture Work?

Acupuncture utilizes the body’s nervous system to promote healing and balance. Nerves conduct communication throughout the body, constantly adapting to internal and external changes. To survive, the body may bypass diseased areas, leading to pain, organ issues, and disease over time.

Acupuncture and herbs can help by reminding the nervous system how to function correctly, removing blockages, and restoring balance. Importantly, acupuncture treats the body, mind, and spirit as a whole, addressing physical and emotional symptoms to provide holistic healing.
