The Basics of Acupuncture Points

Acupuncture activates and boosts your innate healing abilities by targeting specific points on your body. These areas are known as acupuncture points, or acupoints.

Balancing Your Qi With Acupuncture

By focusing on specific acupoints, acupuncture helps to restore your body’s natural energy flow, or Qi. This can improve the overall function of your immune system and aid in the treatment of many ailments.
