What happens to one part of the body affects every other part of the body.
The mind and body are not viewed separately, but as part of an energetic system.

What to Expect
Does it hurt?
Most of the time it feels gentle and relaxing. Acupuncture points are chosen based on your specific pain or symptoms, so if the Qi energy is blocked, your body may react with a slight jolt to let you know that healing has begun. It's common to feel calm and sleepy both during and after your session.
Diagnosis Methods
Chinese medicine takes in a holistic view of the body, such as checking your pulse, looking at your tongue, asking about your diet/exercise, etc. to develop a unique treatment plan to promote optimal balance.
