What is Acupuncture?
|
Acupuncture is the stimulation of points along the skin using very thin, hairlike needles. Depending on the effect needed and the location, needles may be touched to the skin to stimulate the area, inserted very shallowly, or inserted an inch or more. The needles are often painless upon insertion. It can also include moxibustion and cupping. By stimulating specific points on the body, acupuncture corrects the imbalance of qi throughout the body.

Common pediatric concerns include constipation and eczema, among others. Listed below are many ailments that John has experience helping people with.
