Acupuncture is an ancient form of medicine developed in the East over 2500 years ago. This holistic form of medicine is now becoming more and more popular in the West and is commonly accepted as a useful complement to orthodox medicine. It is being increasingly recognised by doctors as one of the most valuable complementary medicines.
