Acupuncture is a critical component of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that involves the insertion of thin, sterile needles into specific points on the body to stimulate the flow of Qi (life energy) and promote healing. Practitioners use acupuncture to treat various conditions, including pain, stress, and digestive issues, by restoring balance to the body’s energy pathways, or meridians.
