Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is an ancient system of medicine that has been practiced for over 2,500 years. It encompasses a variety of therapies, including herbal medicine, acupuncture, massage, exercise, and dietary guidance, all aimed at preventing and treating health issues. Acupuncture, a key component of TCM, involves the insertion of thin needles into specific points on the body. When performed correctly by a trained practitioner using clean, single-use needles, acupuncture is generally considered safe.
