RELAX INTO ACUPUNCTURE 
RELAX INTO ACUPUNCTURE Next time you’re in need of some serious self-love and rejuvenation, schedule an acupuncture session. You may already be a devotee, or you may be thinking, “Wait—sticking needles in my skin is a form of pampering?” It totally is, and more. But don’t just take it from me—experience it for yourself. Some of the benefits of acupuncture (which aims to balance the flow of energy, or qi, throughout the body with the strategic placement of fine, hair-width needles) are increased energy, a feeling of positivity or calm, release of emotion, and even relief of built-up pain and tension. When something’s out of balance with your body—which inevitably affects your beauty—but you just can’t pinpoint exactly what you need, acupuncture is an ideal therapy to try. It’s another form of listening to your body’s needs and responding in a beautifying way. And, if wrinkles are on your radar, there’s a specific form of acupuncture, called cosmetic acupuncture, that aims to increase collagen production to counteract skin wrinkling.
