Acupuncture works by balancing the flow of energy through pathways called meridians in the body. This energy flow is restored or stimulated with the insertion of needles along these meridians. These points of acupuncture are considered sites to stimulate the nerves, muscles, and connective tissue with the purpose of releasing your body’s natural painkillers. Isn’t that magic? That’s why acupuncture is used mainly to relieve discomfort and pain associated with a variety of diseases and conditions.
