Integrative Medicine at Norwalk Hospital

Employed for health and maintenance over centuries, acupuncture promotes balance and equilibrium of the mind and body. In essence, acupuncture guides the body towards homeostasis, where healing takes place on a deep level in a natural and organic manner.

During acupuncture, very fine needles are inserted into specific points along meridian pathways that traverse the body and correspond with the proper functioning of the organs, musculoskeletal structure and internal physiological systems. Pain and disease are mirrored through the meridians of the body. When they are correctly aligned and restored to their original functioning, the result is a better balance between mind and body. As clinical studies affirm its benefits, the popularity of acupuncture continues to grow.

Benefits include:

• Relief from pain and nausea
• Promotes healthy recovery from surgery
• Helps with stress management
• Supports immune health.

Private and community sessions are available.
