How Acupuncture effects the body can be explained in western medical terms and in the traditional sense of how and why the medicine works. A person’s health is the result of a harmonious balance of the complementary extremes of yin and yang and Qi. Illness is said to be the consequence of an imbalance of these forces. 

Qi and Energy flows through meridians, or fascia, nerves, + arteries. The meridians and energy imbalances are accessible through hundreds of acupuncture points on the body. Tiny needles are inserted into these points to help restore the body’s healthy state.

The flow of Qi can be disrupted by:

  • Stress + Burnout

  • Injuries

  • Foods + Sleep Habits

  • Environmental Toxins

  • Past Emotional Traumas

When it comes to a Western approach there are many ways acupuncture influences the nervous and cardiovascular systems. A large body of evidence indicates that acupoints have abundant supply of nerves. According to Chen Shaozong, “For 95% of all points in the range of 1.0 cm around a point, there exist nerve trunks or rather large nerve branches.” Bringing together Eastern + Western Medicine makes for a Beautiful healing space.
