Acupuncture is a form of traditional Chinese medicine that treats pain by inserting thin needles into various parts of the body. The guiding philosophy behind this involves the “life force” believed to flow through all things, known as qi (pronounced “chee”). According to Chinese medicine, qi flows through pathways in the body known as meridians. Your acupuncturist will place needle at certain points in these meridians to stimulate the flow of qi. Studies have shown promising outcomes for acupuncture used for pain relief.
While acupuncture involves inserting needles into your skin, the needles are very thin, so there is generally little pain. You will typically begin to see results after several treatments. Our acupuncturists are certified and well educated in their field, providing quality care at our available locations. We currently offer acupuncture services at our Lone Tree and Northglenn locations. Call us today to find out more!
