“Acupuncture is a health science that is used to successfully treat for pain and dysfunction of the body.” (International Academy of Medical Acupuncture)

The human body consists of a flow of energy that is usually well balance and in harmony. This flow of energy courses over 12 meridians in one's body. However, disruption of this normal flow can occur resulting in pain and other symptoms that you may be experiencing.

Acupuncture helps to restore your body's energy imbalance by placing needles along specific points located on these 12 meridians. There are also other methods used to accomplish this without the use of a needle.

Meridian therapy can be referred to as practicing of the principle of acupuncture without the use of needle penetration. Other techniques used in place of needle penetration include cold laser, electrical stimulation, and pressure massage.

Sahara Chiropractic utilizes both acupuncture and meridian therapy to accomplish the goal of restoring normalcy to the body's energy balance. We realize that not everyone is accustomed to needles. Therefore, one may still be able to experience maximal relief from the principles of acupuncture by application of cold laser or electrical stimulation.
