The most well-known and widely used treatment within Chinese Medicine practice is Acupuncture.

The earliest recording of Acupuncture is seen on the Ma Wang Dui silk scrolls unearthed in 1972 - dating back to 187 BC. These silk scrolls discuss the use of stone “needles” used to prick and bleed points running along the meridians of the body balance the Yin and Yang energies.

Modern day Acupuncture is practiced using the insertion of high-grade surgical disposable needles to restore balance and encourage the bodies natural healing energy.

It is believed that the blockage, excess or deficiency of Qi is the root cause of disharmony within the body. Qi is best thought of as being similar to water, it likes to move and flow. If Qi and water stagnate, they become murky and toxic.

Acupuncture is traditionally used for a variety of health conditions, from muscular conditions such as sore back or joints to internal conditions such as headaches, chronic pain or endometriosis.
