Acupuncture has been practiced for thousands of years in China, and is based on holistic medical philosophies derived from observing nature. In the last 50 years, it has become more accepted in the West and incorporates modern medical knowledge to treat a wide range of disorders from local musculoskeletal pain to internal medicine. There are various theories and methods of utilizing acupuncture needle depending on the conditions treated. For example, acupuncture is used alone or combined with electrical stimulation to deliver local pain relief. On the other hand, it can also be applied over different points to help lower blood pressure over time. 

Acupuncture can reduce pain and inflammation through enhancing generation of nitric oxide and improving local circulation. It can also relieve stress, reduce anxiety by engaging with the hypothalamus pituitary axis to bring the body towards a parasympathetic state. It is effective for chronic recurring migraines, headaches and other pain syndromes as well as reducing the side effects of conventional treatments. As Chinese medicine has been a complete medical system for centuries, it is also effective for most internal medicine issues as a holistic alternative especially when combined with herbal prescriptions.
