What Is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture is a treatment used to address not only pain, but a wide variety of disease conditions through the stimulation of certain body points using hair-thin, sterile, disposable needles.

When acupuncture needles stimulate the body, various changes happen, including increased blood flow, regulation of the nervous system, decreased pain sensitivity and improved emotional well-being (via chemicals in the brain).
