How can acupuncture improve skin health?

Acupuncture can promote skin health by addressing internal imbalances that may be causing skin-related symptoms. Many patients experience improvements in conditions such as acne, eczema, and rosacea after acupuncture treatments. The process encourages better circulation, supports the body’s natural healing, and contributes to an overall sense of wellness.

What is Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)?

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is based on over 3,000 years of studying every aspect in the body: internal and external anatomy, and the flow of Qi (energy). TCM modalities include acupuncture, Chinese herbs, moxibustion, cupping, and Qigong. The foundation for TCM is that Qi (pronounced “Chee”), or the life energy, flows through the body.
