Improve Performance & Eliminate Pain Naturally
How Does it Work?
Acupuncture has been used effectively for the treatment of pain and to correct imbalances in the physical body for hundreds of years - but how? To understand this we have to first grasp how pain occurs - and for that we turn to one theory called the Gate Control theory of pain. This theory posits that pain messages are sent from the site of origin to a particular area of the spine where gates allow them to pass upward to the brain, creating the sensation of pain. In short, acupuncture appears to block these pain messages from being sent to the brain, thereby bringing about relief. When used in a series and consistently over time this relief appears to be amplified and prolonged.
