Acupuncture is a key component of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and has been practiced for thousands of years to restore balance, improve circulation, and stimulate the body’s natural healing ability. At Advanced Acupuncture Christchurch, treatments combine classical techniques with modern therapeutic approaches to deliver long-lasting results.

What Is Acupuncture and How Does It Work?

Acupuncture involves the insertion of very fine, sterile needles into specific points on the body known as acupuncture points. These points are located along energy pathways called meridians, which regulate the flow of Qi (vital energy), blood, and nerve signals throughout the body.

When these pathways become blocked or imbalanced, pain, stiffness, fatigue, and illness can occur. Acupuncture works by:

• Stimulating the nervous system

• Improving blood circulation

• Reducing inflammation

• Relaxing tight muscles

• Supporting organ function

• Encouraging the release of natural pain-relieving chemicals

This makes acupuncture an effective, drug-free treatment for a wide range of conditions.
