:: Acupuncture ::
Acupuncture is one of the oldest, most commonly used medical procedures in the world. Originating in China more than 2,000 years ago it
is one of the key components of the system of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).

Yin represents the cold, slow, or passive principle, while yang represents the hot,excited, or active principle.
According to TCM, health is achieved when the body in a "balanced state"and disease occurs when there is an internal imbalance of yin and yang. This imbalance leads to blockage in the flow of qi (vital energy) along pathways known as meridians.It is believed that there are 12 main meridians and 8 secondary meridians and that there are more than 2,000 acupuncture points on the human body that connect with them.
