Herbal and Traditional Plant Medicine

Acupuncture

Needle treatment is based on the idea of passing delicate needles through your skin at strategic points on your body. Needle therapy, which is an important part of traditional Chinese medicine, is most usually used to relieve pain. Needle therapy is defined in traditional Chinese medicine as a strategy for altering the surge of unimportant or life force — known as qi or chi (CHEE) — that is recognized to flow through the body.
