Naturopathic led acupuncture is a safe and effective treatment for a variety of illnesses. By inserting extremely fine, sterile needles into specific points, it promotes natural healing by restoring balance to the body. It may be used to manage pain, enhance immunity, support physical and emotional health, and improve overall function and well-being. Not only does it stimulate the release of the body’s own natural pain killers, it also influences the release of molecules associated with healing and disease regulation.
