Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a treatment technique that has evolved as part of traditional Chinese medicine. We offer here in practice, body and ear acupuncture.

Application:

In the body acupuncture precisely defined points that lie on energy pathways, the meridians known as the skin, are stimulated with special needles to stimulate a blocked energy flow. This particular pain can be alleviated or completely eliminated. The body acupuncture leads on the nerve endings to stimulation of the spinal cord and certain areas in the brain, from which in turn the pain impulse can be suppressed. In addition, the body’s own neurotransmitters and endogenous opiates (eg endorphins) are released. Many of these effects can otherwise only be achieved through artificial means such as pharmaceutical products (eg., In the form of tablets and injections).

Ear acupuncture is based on the observation that disturbances in the organism can project the ear to certain zones. The questions will be tracked by their increased sensitivity. If, again at these points stimuli by special thin needles autoregulation mechanisms are activated which can minimize or reverse these disturbances in the organism.
