Acupuncture is a method of encouraging the body to promote natural healing and improve function. This is done by inserting sterilized, stainless-steel needles (that are as fine as a human hair) into specific points located near or on the surface of the skin which has the ability to alter various biochemical and physiological conditions in order to treat a wide variety of illnesses. Dating back to over 3000 years as a primary health care system in China, acupuncture and Chinese medicine is widespread in Asia, Europe and USA.
