Richmond Hill Acupuncture

Acupuncture is designed to restore proper flow to the body’s essential life energy, or “Qi”, which moves through the body along well-known meridians. Should this flow become disrupted or one or more of these meridians will become blocked, and all manner of disease and other afflictions follow.
