What Is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is an important element of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). This ancient healthcare system has been refined over thousands of years to address illness and promote overall well-being. In TCM philosophy, the body's vital energy, known as qi, flows along specific channels called meridians. When qi is balanced, it contributes to spiritual, emotional, and physical health. However, imbalances in qi can lead to disease. This imbalance can occur due to blockages in the flow of qi, disrupting the harmony between yin and yang, two opposing but interconnected principles in Chinese philosophy. TCM employs various techniques, including acupuncture, to reinstate the balance of yin and yang and clear the way for the proper energy flow along the meridians. Acupuncturists utilize over 2,000 acupuncture points along these meridians to stimulate the flow of qi and alleviate blockages. By inserting thin needles into specific points, acupuncture aims to restore the smooth movement of qi, thereby improving overall health and well-being.
