Acupuncture treatment involves the use of very fine sterile disposable needles which are inserted into specific points on the body to inform and activate the self-healing mechanism of the body. Once the needles are in place one may experience sensations of heaviness, warmth or a sense of energy flowing from the area around the acupuncture point.

In addition to treating pain and illness directly, acupuncture is also an excellent means of reducing physical tension and emotional stress, thus allowing the body an even greater capacity for healing to take place.
