What is acupuncture in Downtown San Diego CA?

Acupuncture uses very thin, sterilized needles inserted at specific points in your body to help treat many health conditions or help you maintain wellness. It is a traditional Chinese medical treatment in practice for thousands of years and has grown more and more popular in the United States over the last few decades.

Practitioners of acupuncture believe it helps balance the flow of energy (qi) throughout your body.

If disrupted, this flow can cause pain and other problems. Inserting the needles in the correct areas helps rebalance flow. The needles may also help stimulate nerves, muscles, and connective tissue, prompting your body to naturally heal and care for itself.

Acupuncture should always be performed by a licensed acupuncturist, like those at Gaslamp Chiropractic. These professionals have undergone education and training to provide safe, effective treatment.


What conditions can acupuncture relieve?

Acupuncture may help you maintain overall wellness by improving your sleep, digestive health, and feelings of well-being.

It is also part of holistic treatment for many health conditions, including:
