What is acupuncture?
Acupuncture is one of the oldest and most extensively researched forms of medicine in the world. Originating from Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), it works by inserting fine sterile needles at specific points along the body’s meridian system — channels through which Qi (vital energy) flows.
When this flow becomes disrupted — through injury, illness, stress or lifestyle factors — the result is pain, dysfunction and disease. Acupuncture restores the smooth flow of Qi, rebalancing the body’s internal environment and stimulating its innate capacity to heal.
At Ascend Acupuncture, Dr. Truth Robinson integrates classical TCM acupuncture with a deep understanding of modern anatomy, physiology and evidence-based practice — delivering treatments that are both time-honoured and clinically precise.
What acupuncture treats
