New to acupuncture at the A4A Therapy Clinic? Here’s what you need to know.

During an acupuncture session, a trained practitioner inserts very thin needles through the skin to stimulate muscles, nerves and tissues. By placing these needles at strategic points on your body, acupuncture can be used to target areas of pain and discomfort.
