Acupuncture
针 灸
As per traditional acupuncture theories, there are 14 energy channels running vertically along the length of the human body called “meridians”. Each Meridian is linked to a specific organ and when the energy flow along these meridian lines is blocked, illness can occur.
Acupuncture involves inserting tiny, thin needles into specific points in the body to stimulate meridian flow and positively influence the general health of your body and mind. For Acute injuries, acupuncture can help reduce inflammation and swelling which if not treated can cause scar tissue or prevent proper joint mobility. (Each needle is encased in sterile packaging for single use).
按照 传统针灸理论，我们人体有 1 4 条能量循行的路径覆盖全身，被称之 为 “ 经络 ” 。每条 经络都与内在脏腑相关联，当这些经络内的能量循环被阻塞时，就会引发疾病。
针灸是将细小的针插入身体的特定穴位，以刺激经络内的气血流动并调整身体和心理的整体健康。对于急性损伤，针灸可以帮助减少炎症和肿胀，以减少瘢痕组织形成并避免关节僵直活动不利。 （每根 针都包装在无菌包装中，仅供单次使用 ）
