ACUPUNCTURE
Acupuncture uses hair-thin, solid, sterile (one time use), disposable, pain free needles to
stimulate specific areas of the body to for the benefit of balancing health and wellbeing.
It is extremely relaxing because of the endorphin release that happens while resting during a
treatment. Most people take a nap or experience deep relaxation.
