Acupuncture:

Acupuncture, which can be used to treat a broad range of conditions and is a treatment which encourages the patient's body to cure itself, is one of the oldest medical procedures in the world. It had its origins in China, more than 2500 years ago; some even believe it to be as long as 4000 years ago.

In acupuncture, the nerves in the skin and muscles are stimulated by the penetration of thin, metallic, solid needles at anatomic points also known as acupuncture points or acupoints and this produces a wide variety of effects. It causes the system to increase the release of natural painkillers. These natural painkillers, endorphin and serotonin, are released in the pain pathway of the brain and the spinal cord causing the pain signals which are received to be modified.

Any combination of the following techniques can be use for the treatment. Very thin disposable needles are used for treatment.

1. Scalp Acupuncture : Suitable for Epilepsy, Pain ,Paralysis (e.g. After stroke paralysis), Parkinson’s Disease and other Shaking Syndromes
