Acupuncture is the insertion of very thin needles into specific areas on your body to trigger your body’s natural healing mechanisms. The main way acupuncture works is to stimulate your body’s blood flow to the area where there is a problem so your body can repair it. Your blood contains the nutrients, hormones, oxygen and ‘repair crew’ required to repair and remediate many health issues.
Acupuncture is brilliant for pain, but it’s also used as an adjunct treatment for many other conditions.
