How does acupuncture work?

Traditional Chinese Medicine posits that the human body has meridians, or invisible passageways. More than 360 points on the body connect to certain organs and functions, and in a healthy state, energy flows freely. Events such as stress or injuries block this flow, disrupting a balanced qi (energy).

Acupuncture, then, is the act of restoring your energy flow by using ultra-thin needles on specific points based on this meridian system, opening your pathways.

If you or someone you know could benefit from less pain and improved energy, schedule an appointment at Life Essentials TCM Center. Call 636-536-4070 or book online at tcmclinic1.com today!
