Medical acupuncture can be defined as the stimulation of the peripheral nervous system with acupuncture needles, with or without electrical stimulation, to induce reflex neuromodulatory responses (sensory, motor, or autonomic) for the therapeutic purposes of treating pain and dysfunction of the locomotor system, reversible problems of dysregulation or to contribute as an adjunctive support treatment in chronic or irreversible conditions.
The goals of medical acupuncture treatment are not to cure, but to provide clinical improvement measured in functional terms through neuromodulation and the activation of and facilitation of the body’s natural pain control and healing mechanisms.

En quoi ça consiste
Most of the appointment is spent mapping out what’s going on in your body and choosing points, then resting with fine needles in place for a stretch — sometimes with heat, cups or electrical stimulation — and you leave with a sense of what was treated and whether more sessions make sense.
