Welcome to the future of healthcare

Acupuncture

Acupuncture has existed as part of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for thousands of years but it's only in the past 30 years that it has become integrated into general medicine. It's used mostly as a complementary treatment (one given alongside conventional treatments). Practitioners of TCM believe that energy called Qi flows around your body in channels (meridians). Equal and opposite properties called yin and yang are thought to become unbalanced, causing illness. The needles used in acupuncture aim to restore this balance.

The way acupuncture works is being increasingly understood in general medicine. In this setting, it's based on the idea that acupuncture needles stimulate nerve endings and alter the way your brain functions, particularly in relation to how your body responds to pain. Acupuncture is used to treat a range of conditions. There is good scientific evidence for its effectiveness.
