Acupuncture is an ancient Traditional Chinese Medicine whereby thin small needles are inserted into specific acupuncture points. This brings about a balance in the “qi” or energy of the body and can treat underlying health conditions like pain, stroke, fertility, immunity, stress and insomnia. Cupping and moxibustion is also used as therapeutic modalities with acupuncture and Tui-Na massage/ pressure therapy. Facial acupuncture can also stimulate collagen production and rejuvenate the complexion.
