How Acupuncture works
Acupuncture helps improve blood flow circulation to a particular area of pain and or symptoms. There is a common saying in Chinese medicine “Where there is pain, there is no blood flow, and where there is blood flow there is no pain.” The same too can be said for chronic symptoms.
Acupuncture works with the PNS (parasympathetic nervous system) to direct blood flow to help encourage reduction of pain and symptoms. The more in which we receive Acupuncture, the more in which this restorative functioning is established, and thus reduction of pain.
