Frequently asked questions.
-
Acupuncture works by regulating Qi and Blood within the body's energy pathways, known as meridians, as well as the internal organs. When these systems become imbalanced, you may experience pain or disruptions in emotional well-being, digestion, or menstrual health.
The body is constantly in flux—like yin transforming into yang or night turning into day; so symptoms can naturally vary from day to day. This is why a holistic approach to health is essential, focusing on identifying and addressing the root cause rather than simply masking symptoms.
