Acupuncture
Acupuncture is among the oldest healing practices in the world. It is a whole medical system that has been practiced in China and other Asian countries for thousands of years. Acupuncture is a technique of inserting and manipulating fine sterile filiform needles into acupoints with the aim of unblocking Qi. Qi is our vital energy or life force that permeates all living things. According to traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) theory, Qi flows through meridians or energy pathways of our bodies. When a person is diseased, or injured, there is an obstruction of Qi along one or more meridians. By inserting needles into acupuncture points we can rebalance our Yin & Yang energies. When Yin and Yang are in harmony, Qi flows freely within the body and our abilities of self healing is enhanced improving our spiritual, emotional, mental and physical health. Acupuncture is both safe and effective for acute and chronic illness as well as preventative measures. Auriculotherapy or ear acupuncture is also practiced at Acupuncture del Soul.

Auriculotherapy is affective for addictions, allergies, pain, stress management and much more.
