Acupuncture Treatments at Lessness Natural Health
Acupuncture Introduction
Acupuncture is a highly effective and painless way of treating a wide range of medical conditions. Many people now prefer a more natural, or holistic, approach to their healthcare, trying to avoid pharmaceutical medications or surgery, whilst recognising that in some cases these approaches may be necessary and appropriate. This approach is often referred to as ‘integrated medicine'.
