Acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine are both a primary and preventative form of medicine. That means that it can treat almost anything, including pain, hormonal imbalances, the common cold/flu, allergies and chronic issues like autoimmune diseases or mental health. It is also used to prevent disease from occurring like a big boost of immunity. Those who regularly get acupuncture are less likely to become injured, sick or have other imbalances in the body. Cosmetic procedures are used in lieu of more invasive injections, or, to extend the effects of other cosmetic procedures.

Acupuncture is meant to be very relaxing, and patients often fall asleep during treatment. The needles used are so tiny, they are often compared to a cat’s whisker, or human hair and are not often felt. While you may feel the occasional pinch, any pain will only last about a second. Acupuncture is also extremely safe with minimal side effects.
