ACUPUNCTURE
Acupuncture involves the insertion of fine, sterile needles into specific sites known as acu-points. The human body has over 500 acu-points along the various meridians. Stimulation of these acu-points clears any blockage and encourages the normal flow of qi through the body.
At Meridian Healing Centre we often implement moxibustion, cupping and massage techniques to compliment the acupuncture treatment. Moxibustion involves the burning of a Chinese herb to heat the acupuncture needle and/or the acu-point. Cupping is the application of glass suction cups to the skin in order to bring blood to that area to aid the healing process.
