How Does Acupuncture Work?
Have you ever listened to your favorite kind of music on a static filled radio station? Acupuncture does to you, what fine tuning with the dial does to the reception on the radio. Acupuncture tunes in your signal, so that it comes in and goes out with a crystal clarity.
Acupuncture works by assisting you in creating harmony with the cycles and rhythms of nature through balancing Qi (Chee).
Qi or life force energy flows through channels or meridians in each of us, just as water flows through streams or rivers on earth.
Fine, solid, hair-thin needles are placed in the skin resulting in the movement of Qi along the meridians.
Like clearing away tree limbs and boulders from a turbulent or stagnant river assists in the smooth flow of water, clearing blocks or imbalances in the meridians assists in the smooth flow of Qi.
When Qi is abundant and flowing, you may experience balance, harmony and wellness in your body, mind and spirit.
When Qi is turbulent, or blocks are present, the natural cycles may be disrupted creating an imbalance which may eventually lead to pain or dis-ease.
Acupuncture treats the underlying imbalance which in turn may relieve the symptoms or signals of that imbalance.
