Acupuncture has been around for a long time, with estimations varying between 3,000 and 5,000 years. It evolved in China, and is based on the concept that our body has an energy force called Qi running through it. Qi works in conjunction with Yin and Yang to keep our body and mind in balance. If the flow of Chi is disturbed, we can become ill. Acupuncture involves inserting fine needles at the Chi points around the body to restore harmony where required. Sometimes the needles contain electrodes for extra stimulation.There are many different conditions that have been shown to respond well to acupuncture, including:- depression
