According to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Qi flows through the body. Qi stands for the flow of life energy. Detailed diagrams provide information about the pathways of Qi, the so-called energy meridians. Acupuncture influences these energy flows by setting fine needles. If the qi flow is disturbed at a certain point in its course, this blockage can be released by targeted stimulation. Not only the known needles are used here, but also heat, light, pressure or electrical stimuli. Additional treatments such as acupressure and reflexology massage stimulate points that affect organs and connective tissue. Herbal medicine can also enrich the therapy.
