Why Acupuncture
Acupuncture is one of the world’s oldest continuously practiced therapies, and the origins can be traced back nearly 5000 years in Chinese medicine. It is a cost-effective, drug-free treatment option that has been extensively researched in clinical trials with effectiveness in specific conditions being confirmed in recent research.
​
Acupuncture is best described as a treatment modality where tiny needles are inserted on specific points and specific depths to bring a balance of Qi(life energy) of the body. The treatment is considered safe under a well-trained practitioner, with registered acupuncturists now overseen by the Australian Health Practitioners Regulation Agency (AHPRA). Acupuncture consists of the stimulation of acupuncture points through fine needles, finger pressure, heat (moxibustion), and more recently electrical and laser stimulation. This process initiates a response from the central nervous system, which in turn can have an effect on body functions (digestive, hormonal, sexual, cardiac) in the following ways:
-
Increases blood circulation
-
Stimulates the release of neurotransmitters such as endorphins
-
Regulates the hypothalamus and pituitary glands and rebalances hormones
​
