How It Works
Regulating Qi and Blood, Unblocking Meridians
In TCM, neurological conditions are often associated with blockages or disruptions in Qi and blood along specific meridians. Acupuncture works by stimulating precise points to clear these blockages, restore the free flow of Qi and blood, and facilitate recovery in the affected areas.
Awakening Brain Functions
Techniques such as scalp acupuncture stimulate brain areas associated with memory, movement, and coordination.
Harnessing Innate Vitality
Acupuncture helps tap into the body’s innate energy reserves, enhancing its natural ability to repair and recover from illness.
Nourishing the Liver and Kidneys
In TCM, the liver and kidneys support healthy movement and the nervous system. The liver is thought to ensure smooth energy flow to muscles and tendons, while the kidneys are believed to support bones and the brain. By focusing on these areas, TCM treatments aim to restore harmony and help the body recover.
