Chi is the same energy which allows you to understand these words you are now reading, the very same energy which allows the blood to flow in the veins and arteries to bring nutrients to the various parts of the body. Chi travels deep into all the organs, tissue and cells in the body therefore moving Blood (the source of life) throughout the body. Chi is accessed by way of acupuncture point. Acupuncture points can be compared to tiny windows on the energy channels.
Acupuncture stimulates the body’s natural healing process. Inserting acupuncture needles at specific pressure points along the body stimulate the central nervous system and the production of certain neurotransmitters. This physiological response cues the body and brain to naturally regulate pain levels and increase circulation.
