ACUPUNCTURE

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is the insertion of hair-thin needles into the body at specific points, thereby stimulating and activating the body's self-healing mechanisms. Acupuncture is an effective therapy for certain medical conditions, especially those involving painful disorders, osteoarthritis, low back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, fibromyalgia, etc..

Needle Acupuncture

How it works
The following pictures show how needles are inserted as well as a sample diagram with the specific points the needles are inserted depending on type of pain.

Laser Acupuncture

How it works
Laser acupuncture is done by a device that emits a red light beam somewhat similar to a grocery-store checkout scanner and poses no risk unless you stare directly at the beam. The beam stimulates hand acupuncture points with a low-energy laser beam and a mild electrical current.
