Overview

Acupuncture is a Ministry of Health-approved medical complementary method with a history of thousands of years, based on inserting very fine, sterile needles as thin as a hair into specific anatomical points on the body (acupuncture points). It is used to create a holistic balance by stimulating the body's own healing mechanisms (neural and hormonal pathways). Medically, it is highly effective in treating chronic and acute pain (migraine, lumbar and cervical disc herniation, etc.), relieving stress, anxiety and sleep disorders, regulating the digestive system and supporting weight control (appetite suppression). In aesthetics (cosmetic/facial acupuncture), it increases blood circulation and collagen production in the face, softening fine lines and giving the skin vitality, firmness and a natural glow.

Procedure and Important Notes

How Is It Performed?

Sterile, single-use acupuncture needles are placed precisely at the chosen points, and the patient rests in a comfortable position with the needles in place for 20–30 minutes.

Aftercare

You may feel mild relaxation and relief after treatment. In the first few hours, avoid strenuous physical activity and excessive stress, and make sure to drink plenty of water.
