Acupuncture is an ancient form of medicine that has deep roots in Chinese culture. A needle is used to stimulate or "activate" vital points in the human body. These points are referred to as "acupoints" and each point has a function that can affect areas of the body associated with it. The acupuncturist knows how to put these points together to help the person achieve balance in their body and mind.
