How Acupuncture Works with Margaret Ryding

Acupuncture is a time-honored healing practice that has been used for over 5,000 years, originating in ancient China. This natural therapy involves the gentle insertion of ultra-thin needles into specific points on the body to influence and balance the flow of energy, known as qi (气).

When your qi flows smoothly, your body is in balance and health is maintained. Disruptions in this energy flow can lead to physical or emotional imbalances. By targeting precise acupuncture points—areas where energy surfaces and can be guided—acupuncture helps restore harmony and support the body's natural ability to heal.

Margaret Ryding uses acupuncture as a holistic approach to wellness, aiming to rebalance energy, relieve discomfort, and promote overall well-being.

How Margaret Ryding Uses Acupuncture to Support Your Health

PREVENTION

Acupuncture has been used for thousands of years in ancient China as a preventive healthcare practice—a tradition that continues today. By keeping the body's energy, or qi, in balance, acupuncture helps maintain overall health and vitality. While prevention remains a key benefit, many individuals now turn to acupuncture when facing illness—often after exploring other treatments without success. Margaret Ryding provides acupuncture not only as a proactive wellness tool but also as a supportive therapy for those seeking relief from chronic or unresolved conditions.

“Although I don’t fully understand the mechanisms of acupuncture, I do know that after a treatment with Margaret, my body feels more aligned, more relaxed, and more at peace. She listens with her ears and hands. It’s very comforting being in her presence.”

Connie P.

“I started acupuncture with Margaret because I’d been diagnosed with endometriosis and wanted to try a more natural path than the surgery my doctor had recommended. With regular acupuncture and herbs, my endometrial cysts were either the same or smaller each time my doctor sent me for ultrasound. I have never had symptoms, and my doctor has reduced the frequency of the ultrasounds gradually based on the results so that I now go only every three years for a recheck. It’s wonderful to have avoided surgery, and I feel great.”
