Acupuncture
originated in China over 3,000 years ago. Its
philosophy is to heal safely, gently, and is a non-invasive approach to
treating acute and chronic disorders. By inserting fine needles into the body's
channels of energy, the body's qi, or life energy, is stimulated, releasing
constrictions, and restoring the body balance and symmetry.
From skin diseases, allergies, and carpal tunnel syndrome to
anxiety, depression, and stress, acupuncture can help the body heal naturally
and without invasive practices. People
recovering from injuries like tendonitis and sprains can benefit from
acupuncture to speed their recovery. Acupuncture even provides an excellent
alternative to hormone replacement therapy to smooth the transition through
menopause.
Acupuncture sometimes provides an alternative to risky and
invasive surgery. Kelly encourages clients to
try less invasive therapies before, for example, surgery for carpal tunnel or
removal of an organ.
