What is Acupuncture? How to Apply?
Among the many treatment methods offered by modern medicine, acupuncture, which has survived from past to present and has a special place among alternative medicine practices, is still preferred by many people today. In fact, acupuncture is a holistic approach that has roots in ancient Chinese medicine dating back thousands of years and has gained popularity around the world over time. As Robotic Rehabilitation Center, we support our clients to regain their health with professional acupuncture applications in the field of physical therapy and rehabilitation.
The basic principle of acupuncture is the regulation of a person's energy flow (called "Qi" or "Chi" according to Chinese medicine) by placing thin needles at certain points on the body. By regulating this energy flow, the body can maximize its self-healing ability and overcome many health problems. Needles are placed precisely at specific "acupuncture points" under the skin, thus helping to maintain the energy balance in the body.
The needles used in acupuncture applications are extremely thin and flexible, which ensures that patients feel minimal discomfort during the application. Acupuncture sessions usually last between 20 and 40 minutes, and the duration of the treatment is determined by the patient's needs and the condition to be treated. The application should be performed by acupuncture specialists or certified therapists under sterile conditions.
At the Robotic Rehabilitation Center, our patients are first evaluated in detail and their current health conditions, past medical histories and expectations regarding acupuncture are taken into account. Accordingly, a personalized acupuncture treatment plan is prepared. The treatment plan includes information such as which acupuncture points to use, the number and frequency of sessions. Throughout the treatment process, our patients' responses to treatment are closely monitored and, if necessary, the treatment plan is adjusted accordingly.
Acupuncture treatment is used extensively for a variety of chronic and acute health problems, as well as for pain management, stress and anxiety reduction, improving sleep patterns, and enhancing overall health and well-being. Acupuncture is considered an effective complementary treatment method for conditions such as back and neck pain, headaches and migraines, joint pain, fibromyalgia, digestive problems, allergic reactions and even smoking cessation or weight loss.
