Acupuncture is a form of traditional Chinese medicine that involves the insertion of thin needles into specific points on the body. The goal of acupuncture is to stimulate these points and balance the flow of energy, or "qi," throughout the body. Acupuncture is often used to relieve pain and discomfort, reduce stress and anxiety, and improve overall health and well-being. Acupuncture is a safe and effective form of therapy that can be used in conjunction with other forms of medical treatment to help manage a variety of health conditions.
