Acupuncture treatment

Acupuncture is one of the oldest therapies known to humanity, having been in use for well over two thousand years. Today, acupuncture is the most widely used and thoroughly researched alternative medicine. Acupuncture uses needles inserted beneath the superficial layer of the skin to stimulate the underlying points and channels to correct and maintain good health. The insertion of fine needles into specific points on the body elicits the production of various chemicals, which in turn contribute to a healing response. The needles are so thin that you often don't feel them. They are inserted either by hand or using a small guide tube. And there are about 2000 points on the body that can be used for acupuncture.
