Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a treatment method based on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). The practitioner inserts very thin needles in specific points (Acu-points) along energy pathways (meridians). The stimulation of these points helps to adjust and balance the flow of energy and restore health.  

Electro-Acupuncture

The practitioner uses glass cups to apply suction, stimulate blood flow, improve the circulation of energy (Qi) and rejuvenate energy pathways (meridians). In China, the earliest recorded use of cupping that is from the famous Taoist herbalist, Ge Hong (281–341 AD).
