Acupuncture is a therapy that involves the insertion of pins and needles through the skin at strategic points in the body. Acupuncture serves as the key component of traditional Chinese medicine and mainly helps in reducing pain. In addition, this technique also helps in reducing stress and anxiety.

Acupuncture also reduces back pain, joint pain, headaches, eye strain and relieves digestive problems.
