Modern science has shown that acupuncture stimulates the brain to produce natural pain relieving chemicals, endorphins. These assist the body to heal itself and give pain relief. The traditional view is that there are energy meridians running throughout the body. When our bodies are healthy, there is plenty of energy and it flows smoothly. However if we fall ill, the energy flow is disrupted. Needles are inserted into the body within these meridians as a means of restoring the balance, and promoting the bodies own natural healing properties.
