Acupuncture is one of the fastest growing and most popular complementary therapies in the West as research is showing it to be helpful for many conditions. Yet, it is one of the most ancient systems of treatment known to man. Its origins in China date back nearly 3000 years.

With a history of more than 2000 years, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has formed a unique understanding of the human body and theory system to diagnose and cure illness. TCM says that good health is associated with the balance of Qi, an energy force that flows through the body. Qi can be hindered or helped by Yin and Yang opposing forces that, when balanced, work together harmoniously.

In spite of trying medication, during the hayfever season, she was unable to spend more than half-an-hour outside before her eyes would become swollen and she started wheezing.
