Zhu’s Scalp Acupuncture (ZSA) is a specialized technique that blends Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) with modern neurology. It uses precise scalp points associated with brain function to stimulate the nervous system and promote neuroplasticity. Gentle, guided movements during treatment further enhance brain-body connection and support recovery.

Acupuncture treats pain by stimulating the nervous system and restoring balance to the body’s energy flow. From a Western perspective, it triggers the release of natural painkillers like endorphins, improves blood circulation, reduces inflammation, and enhances healing. From a TCM perspective, acupuncture works by clearing blockages in the body’s Qi (vital energy) along specific meridians. Both approaches aim to promote the body’s natural healing abilities and provide lasting pain relief.
