Now offering Acupuncture in Moorhead!
Acupuncture is an ancient healing practice that has been used for thousands of years to relieve pain, reduce stress and support the body's natural functions. Acupuncture involves inserting thin, sterile needles into specific points on the body to restore balance, promote natural healing, and enhance overall well-being. How does it work? Vital energy flows through the body along specific pathways know as meridians governs the bodies activities. The energy flow can become impeded, imbalanced or blocked leading to discomfort, illness, or emotional distress. By stimulating key acupuncture points, this practice helps restore the smooth flow of energy, encouraging the body's self-healing mechanisms. Modern research suggests that acupuncture stimulates the nervous system, releases endorphins (the body’s natural painkillers), improves circulation, and reduces inflammation.
