What is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture is part of traditional Chinese medicine (Believed to be some 5000 yrs old.)

Acupuncture is based on the idea that energy (Qi) flows through the body along 6 paired channels and 2 single channels or meridians. These meridians end up and pass through organs in the body. Illness and /or disease can result from blockages along these channels. The acupuncturist will insert very fine (one time use only) disposable needles into the body along the meridians at certain points to help remove the blockages.

Cosmetic Acupuncture

A “cosmetic acupuncture face lift” stimulates and tones sagging and aging skin, while removing toxins, encouraging cell reproduction. It may erase fine lines and decrease deeper lines. It can help reduce double chins; puffy eyelids even dark circles under the eyes can be virtually eliminated. Cosmetic acupuncture is not a replacement for surgical facelift it will not provide an overnight solution. The improvements are subtle and occur gradually over time. It is virtually painless, no side effects or risk of disfigurement.

How Does It Work?

The insertion of fine disposable needles (one time use only) into the face increases blood circulation, collagen, and elastin to the area. This encourages the lines to fill in. The increased nourishment and oxygenated skin and facial muscles will naturally become tighter and rejuvenated.
