Acupuncture is an ancient practice that originated in traditional Chinese medicine and has been used for centuries to treat various ailments. The insertion of needles at specific points on the body is believed to help restore the flow of energy, known as qi, along pathways called meridians.


It's fascinating how such a seemingly simple technique can have such profound effects on the body and mind.


Did you know acupuncture has been trialled successfully for pain relief?


Acupuncture is believed to stimulate the release of endorphins, which are the body's natural painkillers, helping to alleviate pain. Additionally, it can also increase the release of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that plays a key role in regulating mood, sleep, and appetite. This dual action is one reason why acupuncture is often used not only for pain management but also for promoting overall well-being and emotional balance.
