Acupuncture:
Acupuncture is recognized by the National Institute of Health (NIH) and the World Health Organization (WHO) as a safe, natural and drug-free way to address a wide range of health concerns.
Acupuncture works to restore balance in the body/mind system.
When acupuncture needles are inserted into specific points along the energetic meridian pathways, they help to restore the smooth flow of Qi by enhancing what is deficient, reducing what is excessive, and removing what is blocked.
By making energetic "suggestions" acupuncture stimulates the bodies intrinsic healing abilities, helping the patient regained balance and ultimately, material health. Acupuncture is probably the single most research therapeutic complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) modality in the world.

Acupuncture needles are as then as human hair and are not painful. They are sterile and disposable. Most insertions are just below the skin surface and people find the treatments very relaxing.
