Acupuncture Clinics, Manchester

In Traditional Chinese medical theory, meridian channels run all over the body. In a healthy person energy runs along these channels unhindered. When a person becomes unwell, the meridians become blocked, and the energy is unable to flow freely. The meridian network connects all parts of the body as an organic whole, making it possible for the body to be in a harmonious state.

Acupuncture treatment is a therapy where needles almost as fine as a human hair are inserted at specific points along the meridians to stimulate and activate the energy and to restore the imbalance within the body. Modern studies have proven that acupuncture is highly effective in treating a wide range of conditions.

Doctors Qualifying As Acupuncturists

The western world acknowledged the benefits of Chinese Acupuncture as a treatment for a range of diseases prior to Chinese medicinal herbs being introduced. Many Western doctors refer patients to Chinese doctors for acupuncture and a growing number have qualified as acupuncturists themselves.

Acupuncture Treatment Is Not Painful

Acupuncture needles are very fine, not much thicker than a human hair. The process of the acupuncturist inserting needle is usually completely painless. Most acupuncture patients feel nothing, whilst some report feeling some kind of mild sensation, but not pain.

Acupuncture Treatment – Safety

Traditional Chinese doctors understand that acupuncture is safe and effective when practiced under the guidance of the time honoured theories of Chinese medicine. Acupuncture is painless when administered by a qualified acupuncturist. No special clothing is required, simply wear what is comfortable for you.
