Acupuncture uses the insertion of hair-thin, single use, disposable needles into skin or muscle. The needles are not coated in any medicine or injecting medication. The effect mainly comes from your own body's signaling system. The placement and depth of the needles vary based upon the condition. Acupuncture's effectiveness lies in its ability to stimulate the body's nervous system. Acupuncture uses sensory areas of the body to send signals along the body, spine, and brain that signal a need for change. There are many branches and offshoot pathways of signaling that span across the body. Examples include nerve pathways or how muscles attach across the body. Acupuncture uses these systems to create a regulation effect. This process increases circulation, releases naturally-occurring pain reduction hormones, releases tense muscle tissue, and creates a calming effect.
