Acupuncture is a technique of traditional Chinese medicine that uses fine needles inserted into specific points of the body to balance the flow of vital energy and stimulate healing. It offers benefits such as pain relief, stress reduction, improved sleep, strengthening of the immune system, and treatment of digestive disorders. It works by unblocking energy channels, called meridians, and stimulating the nervous system, releasing endorphins.

It is useful for chronic pain, anxiety, digestive, and respiratory problems. It is not usually painful, but should be avoided in certain cases, such as pregnancy or bleeding disorders. Sessions last between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the patient's needs.
