About Acupuncture (continued):

This conversation about human care is based on the description of the movement of vital life giving energy, both in nature and in the body. This energy, called chi, moves through the body in precise channels supporting functions of the body, mind and spirit. When the chi is moving disharmoniously, imbalance begins to surface in the form of specific symptoms. Acupuncture is meant to allow the movement of chi. The movement of chi can keep the healthy person healthy and ameliorate the discomforts and fatigue of short term and chronic illness. When a life-threatening illness such as cancer, lung, or heart disease is present acupuncture can help to support your spirits and positively enhance your experience, as well as reduce the side effects of chemotherapy, radiation, and powerful medications. Acupuncture affects the body, mind, and spirit. In times of personal growth and transformation the presence of this subtle but profound intervention can be powerfully supportive.
