What Is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese medical practice that involves inserting thin needles into specific points on the body to stimulate energy flow, known as Qi (pronounced “chi”). This therapy aims to restore balance and promote healing by addressing imbalances in the body’s energy pathways.

How Acupuncture is given?
The practitioner assesses the patient’s condition and identifies acupuncture points relevant to the treatment.
The patient lies comfortably on a treatment table or sits in a chair, depending on the area being treated.
The acupuncturist gently inserts thin, sterile needles into specific acupuncture points on the body.
Once inserted, the needles may be manipulated with gentle movements or stimulated with heat or electricity to enhance the therapeutic effect.
The patient typically remains in position with the needles in place for about 15-30 minutes, allowing time for the treatment to take effect.
After the retention period, the acupuncturist removes the needles carefully and disposes of them properly.
The patient may receive post-treatment advice, such as staying hydrated or engaging in gentle activities to support the treatment’s effects.
