Acupuncture is treatment which involves inserting very small, thin needles through the skin at different points on the body, to various depths to promote healing. Research suggests that it can help relieve pain, and can even be beneficial for other problems. Today, we will be talking all about acupuncture.
An acupuncturist inserts needles into a person’s body to balance their energy. This helps boost wellbeing and may even cure some illnesses. It can help with the following conditions: headaches, blood pressure problems, and whooping cough, plus others.
Acupuncture stems from traditional Chinese medicine, which explains that health is the result of balance of the “yin” and “yang” of the life force. This is the “qi.” Illness is thought to be the imbalance of these forces.
Qi flows through pathways or meridians in the human body. There are 350 acupuncture points in the body which can access these pathways.
Research from Germany found that acupuncture may help relieve tension headaches along with migraines.
It can also help with:
- low back pain
- neck pain
- osteoarthritis
- knee pain
