Downtown Montreal Acupuncture Clinic
What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is a treatment, provided at our Acupuncture Clinic, which consists of introducing fine needles in specific body locations with the goal of re-establishing energy circulation. Our acupuncturist aims to balance the vital energy of the body. It is preventive but can also be curative. In prevention, it reinforces the organism which can then fight against physical disease as well as psychological afflictions. In the case of illness, it aims to reset the balance within the organism.
Acupuncture is a regulated profession in Quebec that is overseen by l’Ordre des Aucupuncteurs since 1995.
