Acupuncture has been used in traditional Eastern medicine for centuries to promote relief, improve functioning, and promote balance, health and well-being. The most common method of treatment in Traditional Chinese Medicine, acupuncture is increasingly being recognized in the West for its incredible healing power.

Acupuncture involves the use of thin, hairlike needle to gently stimulate points on the body and encourage the flow of energy. As sensory receptors are stimulated, nerves transmit impulses to the brain, specifically the hypothalamic-pituitary system which is responsible for the release of neurotransmitters and endorphins. Endorphins are the body's natural pain-killing hormones, estimated to be 200 times more powerful than morphine and other pain pills. They also play a major role in the balance and functioning of the hormonal system in the body. An acupuncture treatment takes 30 minutes to an hour and most patients experience relief as well as a sense of well being after the first treatment.
