Acupuncture

Barrington, IL

Acupuncture is the practice of inserting very thin needles into specific points along pathways or meridians. Originally used in Traditional Chinese Medicine, acupuncture is used across the world in many countries as a natural healing technique. Studies show that acupuncture can be used to treat a wide variety of conditions. There are over 2,000 acupuncture points spanning the entire body.

How does it work?

It is believed that acupuncture points stimulate the body’s central nervous system to release chemicals in the brain, spinal cord, and muscles. These biochemical signals stimulate your body’s ability to heal itself naturally.

At Flagship Chiropractic Wellness, Dr. Davis will insert thin needles into various acupuncture points throughout the body, based on your needs, to stimulate the flow of energy and natural healing. A typical acupuncture session will last about 20 minutes.
