Acupuncture
Acupuncture works to improve the balance and flow of qi (energy) and promotes the body's self-healing process. Clinical studies observed several positive physiological effects of acupuncture including increased circulation, decreased inflammation, relief from pain and muscle spasms and increased T-cell count, which stimulates the immune system. This is why acupuncture works well for a wide variety of symptoms from pain to inflammation, immune system regulation to women's health and infertility as well as anxiety.
