Acupuncture Chicago Area

ES Health Balance is a Chicago alternative medicine practice that uses acupuncture extensively due to its effectiveness.

Acupuncture is a time tested therapy that was first developed in China thousands of years ago. It promotes health and alleviates sickness through the stimulation of specific anatomical points.

According to the classical theory there are three hundred and sixty five acupuncture points along the meridians. The twelve main meridians, where the body's energy (Qi) flows are linked to specific organs or particular body functions.

By inserting hair thin, sterile, disposable needles the acupuncture points are stimulated, which restores the natural balance and smooth flow of energy (Qi) through the body. This sets the stage for the body to repair itself and maintain its own health.

Modern science proposes that the needles stimulate the nervous system to release bio chemicals, such as endorphins, immune system cells and neurotransmitters. In addition to relieving pain, these chemicals can influence the internal regulation of the body and effect involuntary bodily functions such as blood flow, immune reactions, body temperature and digestion.
