Whilst it is not being suggested that Acupuncture provides a cure for all problems, there is sufficient evidence that, if appropriately used, it can successfully complement conventional treatments to provide the best healthcare available.

Additional benefits are faster recovery from injuries, decreased symptoms of stress and improved circulation. It benefits the strengthening of the immune system which through treatment is better able to withstand colds, minor infections and flu.

Acupuncture treats both the physical presentation and the underlying cause. There is evidence in Science that mind and body are connected. Acupuncture is a medicine that focuses on the individual as a whole, rather than just the symptoms or condition in isolation, to restore health and well being. It restores our innate healing abilities that often became exhausted through a number of factors like, living a life of excess, drinking too much, excessive emotional reactions, working too hard. Balance in all things is considered the key to good health and long life. Acupuncture's main strength is the ability to encourage significant change, through holistic approach to health.
