Natural Pain Relief & Whole-Body Healing at Vital Performance Care
What Is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is a therapeutic treatment rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine that involves the insertion of very fine, sterile needles into specific points on the body. These points are chosen to stimulate the nervous system, improve circulation, and support the body’s natural healing processes.
From a modern clinical perspective, acupuncture can help:
-
reduce pain and inflammation
-
regulate the nervous system
-
improve blood flow and tissue healing
-
support hormonal, digestive, and immune function
It’s a safe, effective, and evidence-informed therapy commonly used for both acute and chronic conditions.
