Traditional Chinese Medicine Theory 

According to TCM theory, acupuncture aims to balance the flow of energy, known as “Qi” (pronounced “chee”) through pathways called meridians in the body. It is believed that illness and pain occur when there is an imbalance or blockage in the flow of Qi. By inserting needles into specific points along the meridians, acupuncturists aim to restore the balance of Qi and promote healing.
