Love Acupuncture with Josie Walker

Acupuncture is a 5,000-year-old healing modality which uses the the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine to regain balance and therefore health and wellbeing. Chinese Medicine is based on an ancient philosophy that describes the universe, body and all things in terms of two opposing but complimentary forces: Yin and Yang. Qi flows along specific pathways called meridians, throughout the body. If the flow of Qi becomes blocked, like water getting stuck behind a dam, the disruption can lead to pain, lack of function, or illness. Acupuncture can release blocked Qi in the body evoking the body’s natural healing response through various physiological systems. Modern research has demonstrated acupuncture’s effects on the nervous system, endocrine and immune systems, cardiovascular system, and digestive system. By stimulating the body’s various systems, acupuncture can help to resolve pain, and improve sleep, digestive function, and sense of well-being.…Hundreds of clinical studies on the benefits of acupuncture show that it successfully treats conditions ranging from musculoskeletal problems (back pain, neck pain, and others) to nausea, migraine headache, anxiety, depression, insomnia, and infertility.
