Why use Acupuncture Treatment?

Depending on where you are in your journey of self-healing, the following claim may be seen as “out there”, but I urge you to continue reading. At some point in searching to find out who you truly are, and what your purpose in this life is, you will inevitably explore energy, vibration, magnetic fields, and how these effect your physical realities.

Acupuncture works on healing one of those energy meridians in your body. It is believed that blockages in the free movement of your life energy, referred to as “qi”, pronounced “chee”, leads to the formation of diseases in the physical body.
