Acupuncture at Tomorrows
Sharpened stones have been found in China suggesting that the practice of acupuncture may date back thousands of years, possibly in the Stone Age.
Acupuncture is an ancient healing art developed several thousand years ago by East Asian practitioners.
They discovered that disharmonies in the body result from various stresses of life, both physical and mental. These imbalances are explained by the theory of opposing forces called yin and yang which, when off balance, disrupt the movement of the body's vital energy.
Your body's energy flows through pathways known as meridians. By applying acupuncture needles to specific points along the meridians, an experienced acupuncturist can help restore the body's natural balance of energy and promote it's ability to heal itself.
