Acupuncture originates from traditional oriental medicine, and in recent years has become one of the core complementary therapies on offer in the UK. It involves the gentle insertion of hair fine needles into certain very specific points, to stimulate the body’s healing energy. Acupuncture is a safe, reliable and effective method of treatment for many conditions of mental, emotional and physical origin.
