Treatments

Acupuncture involves the insertion of very fine (about the width of a human hair), sterile, disposable needles at specific points on the body. Needling these points activates the body's energy or ki (pronounced "key" or "chee"), releasing blockages to promote healing.

 

Other methods used to activate ki are:

• Moxibustion, which involves burning an herbal substance on or near acupuncture points;
• Certain forms of massage, including acupressure, to strongly invigorate points along the relevant acupuncture channels. An acupuncture treatment may incorporate any of the above methods.
• Additionally, a technique called cupping, whereby glass suction cups are applied to certain areas of the body, may be utilized as part of an acupuncture treatment. Small children and patients who are afraid of needles can receive treatments without the use of needles in some cases.
• Also, it is sometimes appropriate to learn a few simple ki cultivation exercises to do at home to extend the effectiveness of the in-office treatments.

 

When you have an acupuncture treatment at Acupuncture Works, you may be surprised that:

• Acupuncture is very relaxing;
• The needles do not hurt;
• The treatments work!
