Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a time-honored, holistic healthcare practice rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that involves inserting thin, sterile needles into specific points on the body. At Gilmore Chiropractic, our skilled acupuncturist uses this gentle, non-invasive technique to restore balance, alleviate pain, and promote overall well-being. Whether you’re dealing with chronic pain, stress, digestive issues, or other health concerns, acupuncture offers a natural and effective solution to enhance your health.

How Does It Work?

Acupuncture works by stimulating specific acupuncture points along the body’s meridians—pathways believed to carry energy, or “Qi” (pronounced “chee”). By inserting fine needles into these points, our acupuncturist helps regulate the flow of Qi, restore balance to the body’s systems, and triggers the release of natural pain-relieving chemicals like endorphins. This process reduces inflammation, improves circulation, and supports the body’s natural healing abilities. We may also combine acupuncture with techniques like cupping, moxibustion, or herbal recommendations to enhance your treatment and address your unique needs.
