Acupunctur
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a traditional form of medicine that is more than 2000 years old. Very fine needles are placed in specific points along the body in order to activate the natural self-healing system. The focus of acupuncture is to treat the cause of disease, maintain health, eliminate specific symptoms, and improve overall wellbeing. The person is considered as a whole and the treatment is tailored specifically for this person at this point in time.
Treatment effect
The aim of acupuncture treatment is to improve your main complaints. In addition, you will feel more balanced and relaxed and often secondary symptoms are relieved and you have more energy.
Is acupuncture safe?
Yes. The comprehensive training covers anatomy, physiology and diseases and ensures that the therapist knows exactly how individual points are to be safely needled. Sterile, disposable needles are discarded after single use and all hygiene regulations are strictly adhered to.
Is acupuncture painful?
No. Thanks to the wafer-thin needles, insertion is painless. In order to achieve the desired result the needle is gently stimulated and most patients describe the resulting sensation as "a slight tug" or "tingling sensation".
