Acupuncture

ACUPUNCTURE is a thousand-year-old technique that consists of inserting fine, single-use needles into precise points of the body in order to achieve psychophysical well-being. Recognised by the World Health Organisation (WHO) as unconventional medicine, it can be used in a large number of illnesses.

• The first visit consists of an interview, supplemented by the viewing of any laboratory investigations provided by the patient, which serve to make the diagnosis according to the M.T.C. more accurate and precise.
• Subsequent sessions will be carried out at times decided on a case-by-case basis according to clinical improvement.

Acupuncture can be a good solution if the patient is already taking a lot of medication and wishes to treat a problem without implementing more of it, or during pregnancy, a period during which the intake of medicinal substances must be particularly evaluated.

It is also aimed at healthy individuals practising sport and physical activity, helping metabolism.

He turns to acupuncture treatment:

• Those who cannot solve musculoskeletal problems and aches and pains of various kinds (CEFALEA, PERIARTRITE, LOMBOSCIATALGIE).
• Those with hormone-related disorders (DISMENORRHEA, MENOPAUSE, WEIGHT VARIATION).
• Those who suffer from recurring problems (ALLERGIES, IRRITABLE COLON, INSOMNIA).

It alleviates pain, relaxes muscles, facilitates sleep, improves metabolism, and helps the subject manage anxiety and stress.

It encourages the body's autonomous production of substances valuable to the healing process (hormones, endogenous regenerative factors, neuromediatric substances, etc.) and induces a regulatory effect on the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems.

In Italy, only graduated doctors and veterinarians are authorised to practise acupuncture.
