Acupuncture is one of the oldest, most commonly used medical procedures in the world. It treats patients by inserting thin needles into acupuncture points in the skin and is based upon the same belief as reflexology; that energy, or Qi, flows through the body in channels, called meridians, and if disrupted can cause illness. When the needles are inserted into the appropriate points it is said that one's flow of energy starts to be brought back into balance and therefore relieves the patient of their illness. Acupuncture is used to treat a wide range of health conditions but is also used as a more general healing method.

Whether you are a complete novice or a growing yoga enthusiast, the more you live the yoga lifestyle on a yoga retreat, the more you will discover that it is not only a physical practise but a holistic practise that seeks to balance the mind, body and soul.
