Acupuncture is a form of traditional Chinese medicine involving the insertion of thin needles into specific points on the body to relieve pain and treat various conditions. Licensed acupuncturists use it to address issues like chronic pain, stress, and nausea, often alongside conventional medical care. It requires formal training and certification, and practitioners must understand anatomy, needle technique, and safety protocols.
