Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a treatment derived from the ancient Chinese art of medicine. Single-use, pre-sterilised, disposable fine needles are inserted on certain responsive points of the skin to influence the various functions of the body. 

Health is dependent on the equilibrium of energy flows (yin & yan) within the body and where an imbalance of energy occurs, disease and illness become apparent. Through the use of acupuncture, energy flows can be stimulated through the sensory nerves under the skin and in the muscles, thus restoring the natural harmony of the body and renewing vitality.
