Why Choose Acupuncture
Acupuncture restores and improves the free-flow of qi and blood throughout the body. It has an analgaesic effect through the release of endorphins (the body’s natural pain killers), calms the mind and helps to regulate and harmonise the organs and their functions. By increasing the white blood cell count and concentration of antibodies, acupuncture enhances the body’s immunity and resistance to disease.
