Once the treatment plan has been determined, the acupuncturist will seek to identify any imbalances or disruptions of Qi. The acupuncturist will place fine, sterile needles at specific acupoints along meridian pathways that have been mapped out over centuries of practice. This safe and painless insertion of the needles can unblock the obstruction and balance Qi where it has become unbalanced. Once this is done, Qi can freely circulate throughout the body, providing adequate nourishment to cells, organs, glands, tissues and muscles. This can eliminate pain and restore balance and harmony, as well as improve the body's innate ability to heal itself - ultimately leading to optimal health and well being.

“When there is pain, there is no free-flow. When there is free-flow, there is no pain.” ~ Chinese proverb
