Traditional Chinese Acupuncture
The most widely practiced form, based on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), involving the insertion of fine needles into specific meridian points to balance the body’s energy (Qi). Relieves pain, reduces stress, improves digestion, supports immune function, and enhances overall well-being.
Electroacupuncture
A modern variation where a mild electric current is passed between pairs of acupuncture needles to stimulate points more intensely. Effective for nerve pain, muscle recovery, arthritis, and chronic conditions like sciatica and fibromyalgia.
Auricular Acupuncture (Ear Acupuncture)
Targets specific points on the ear believed to correspond with different body systems and organs. Helps with addiction recovery, anxiety, stress, insomnia, and pain management.
Scalp Acupuncture
Involves inserting needles into specific areas of the scalp to treat neurological and brain-related conditions. Improves outcomes in stroke rehabilitation, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, and motor function disorders.
