Acupuncture

A unique solution

An ancient and effective technique

Acupuncture is an ancient technique that can help you solve many problems in a completely natural way. I use different styles and techniques to satisfy all needs, always taking care of gentle and painless needling.

Don’t like needles? Don’t worry, there are other needle-less acupuncture techniques which are equally effective and more suited for your needs.

What is acupuncture?

Acupuncture is a complementary medicine technique and one of the pillar of Chinese Medicine. It’s a medical system which has been used by millions of people during thousands of years, and is regularly used today in many countries in Asia and across the western world.

It’s a painless technique that involves the insertion of sterile, stainless steel, hair-thin needles in specific locations around the body.
