How does acupuncture work?

Acupuncture is based on a simple but powerful principle: to restore the circulation of vital energy (called " Qi ") in the body. To do this, fine needles are inserted into strategic points distributed on a precise map of the body. These carefully selected points have unique characteristics and act on specific areas to bring the body back into balance.

Acupuncture is a natural, non-invasive method that provides a holistic approach to health. It doesn't just treat symptoms, but seeks to restore the body's overall balance. Whether you suffer from chronic pain or simply want to improve your well-being, this technique could be the solution for you.

When can acupuncture help?

Acupuncture is a therapeutic practice with multiple benefits that is often recommended for the relief of various health problems. Here are the main indications for its use:

And much more! Some acupuncturists also use it to treat:

Acupuncture in Turkey: a recognized medicine, but what does science say?

In Turkey, acupuncture is officially recognized as a medical treatment. This means that only qualified health professionals can practice it:

But is this ancient practice backed by science?

Thousands of clinical trials conducted in Turkey and elsewhere have shown benefits in a range of situations, including pain management and general well-being. However, the exact mechanisms are still unclear, and the placebo effect is difficult to quantify. Despite these uncertainties, acupuncture is now considered a useful adjunct to care, especially when conventional medicine reaches its limits.

Potential risks of acupuncture

Acupuncture is a natural and very safe method when performed by qualified professionals. With the use of sterile, disposable needles, the risk of serious adverse effects is virtually nonexistent.

Reactions are usually mild and temporary:

The risk of infection is extremely rare when acupuncture is performed in a controlled medical setting.

We believe in quality, humane medicine that is accessible to all. With Turquie Santé, you benefit from personalized support and comprehensive care for optimal results. You deserve the best, and we're here to guarantee it!
