When you think about acupuncture as a therapy to help with any health issues you may have, it’s well worth remembering that this traditional form of medicine has helped a great many people all over the world, for untold generations. The following short video provides a superb introduction and overview to this safe and effective therapy. In practical terms, acupuncture restores and maintains health by the insertion of fine needles into specific points on the surface of the body. This stimulates the different systems of the body to function at their optimum level, allowing it to re-balance and enhance itself, by using its own regenerative and self-healing powers. No drugs are used; in fact, when appropriate, drug regimes are reduced and in some cases, eliminated altogether. (In consultation with your GP).
