Acupuncture in Palma! What is it?

Acupuntura en Palma

Acupuncture is defined as an art and a science that

It consists of inserting very fine needles (disposable) on energy points in the

surface of the body to restore or balance the flow of energy in invisible lines

of the body, called meridians.

Traditional Chinese medicine explains acupuncture as a technique for balancing the flow of energy or life force, known as chi or qi (chee), which is believed to flow through pathways (meridians) in your body. By inserting needles into specific points along these meridians, acupuncture practitioners believe your energy flow will be rebalanced.

In Western terms, the insertion of needles activates small myelinated fibers in the striated muscle, these send impulses to the Central Nervous System producing the release of Neuropeptides (Endorphins, Enkephalins, Dynorphins) blocking the

painful messages coming from any part of the body.

A key component of traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture is most commonly used to treat pain. Increasingly, it is used for general well-being, including managing stress, anxiety, depression, and insomnia.
