Terrain Health is pleased to offer Acupuncture at our Wilton, CT office. Dr. Fraser works with men and women who seek balance in their lives through this non-Western medicine alternative.
Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine practice that involves inserting thin needles into specific points on the body to promote healing and balance. It is based on the concept of qi (energy) flowing through meridians, or pathways, in the body. By stimulating these points, acupuncture aims to restore balance, alleviate pain, and address various health conditions.
