How Acupuncture Helps with Pain Relief
Acupuncture has been practiced for centuries to alleviate pain by harnessing the body’s natural healing abilities. By stimulating specific acupuncture points, it helps balance energy flow (Qi), reduce inflammation, and improve circulation. This process activates the release of endorphins and other natural chemicals that ease pain and promote a sense of well-being. Acupuncture also addresses the root causes of discomfort, supporting holistic and lasting relief from pain.
