What is acupuncture?

Acupuncture is part of Traditional Chinese Medicine therapy. It is a medical system that goes back thousands of years. Acupuncture uses sterile needles to pierce the skin at predetermined points on the body. The needles stimulate or sedate key areas of the body where it is needed to achieve optimal health outcomes. Acupuncture is part of the integrative treatment options for whole-person health addressing the full range of a person’s physical, emotional, spiritual, and environmental influences.
