Acupuncture originated in Asia and has been practiced for over three
thousands years. Acupuncture treatments stimulate specific points in the
body by inserting very fine (hair-thin) needles superficially through the
skin. Acupuncture operates using the body's Qi (pronounced chi), the energy
in the body. This network of energy connects organs and parts of the body.
Pain and illnesses occur when the flow of Qi is disrupted. The proper acu-points
are stimulated with the needles to rebalance and restore the even flow of Qi
throughout the body and remove blockages in the pathways, relieving pain and
other symptoms.
Chiropractic (from Greek chiros and praktikos meaning "done by hand") is a
health care profession whose purpose is to diagnose and treat mechanical
disorders of the spine and musculoskeletal system with the intention of
affecting the nervous system and improving health. It is based on the
premise that a spinal joint dysfunction can interfere with the nervous
system and result in many different conditions of diminished health.
