What conditions can acupuncture help?

Picture
Acupuncture is one of the oldest, most commonly used medical practices in the world. Its roots originate in China more than 5000 years ago, with the practice as it looks today can be traced back to about 2000 years ago. Acupuncture is now practiced worldwide and is regulated to maintain high levels of health and safety standards.  For instance, all needles used are single-use sterilized needles which are discarded after being removed from the body.
