What is Clinical (Full Body) Acupuncture?

Clinical (Full Body) Acupuncture is a traditional holistic therapy with a rich history dating back thousands of years in China and other East Asian countries. This practice involves the precise insertion of very thin, sterile, disposable needles into specific points on the body. These needles stimulate the body, prompting it to regain balance and move toward optimal health.

According to traditional Chinese philosophy, our well-being hinges on the smooth flow of vital energy known as “Qi.” When this flow is disrupted, obstructed, or deficient, it can result in symptoms of pain and illness due to various lifestyle and environmental factors. Acupuncture plays a vital role in restoring the body’s equilibrium, reestablishing the flow of “Qi,” and promoting overall health. As a result, it is employed to address a wide range of conditions.

Many people find it so beneficial and relaxing that they return for multiple sessions.

What to Expect During a Clinical (Full Body) Acupuncture Session

Clinical (Full Body) Acupuncture involves the precise insertion of fine, sterile needles into specific points on the body. Sometimes, a breathing technique may be used to relax the client.

Each session is one hour long. Your initial session includes a comprehensive consultation to understand your main concerns and assess your overall health history.
