Acupuncture is a therapeutic technique that involves the insertion of very thin hair-like needles into specific points on the body. Acupuncture can be performed with or without electric stimulation through the needles. This technique triggers a cascade of local and systemic biochemical and neurophysiologic reactions, which address diverse conditions in the body and result in better body self-regulation and thus, improved health. Although its technique can’t be described in a single statement, possible therapeutic pathways for acupuncture may involve systematic, segmental, local, and psychological effects.

A significant body of rigorous scientific research demonstrates that acupuncture is effective for many chronic health conditions, including musculoskeletal pain, lower back pain, arthritis, migraine and other headaches, and digestive and hormonal issues.
