What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is a traditional form of
Oriental medicine that originated more than 5,000 years ago. It is the
oldest system of medicine known to contemporary man.
There have probably been more people
treated by acupuncture than with any other formalized system of
medicine.
"Classical" acupuncture is a clinical
form of treatment that has evolved over several thousand years of
experimentation.
This method is used to encourage natural
healing; reduce and relieve pain and improve functioning of the affected
areas of the body.
Many diseases that cannot be cured by
western medicine can often be treated successfully by acupuncture.

How Does Acupuncture Work?
Acupuncture deals with the human body in
terms of energy rather than matter. A basic life energy (vital energy)
called Chi is present in every living creature and it circulates
along specific pathways in the body called Meridians.
As long as energy flows freely through
these pathways, health is maintained. When the flow of energy is blocked
for any reason, this energetic system is disrupted and illness results.
Acupuncture involves the insertion of
very fine sterilized disposable needles into specific points on the
body.
By stimulating these specific points
along the energy pathways, the blocked energy is released and health is
restored.

How is Acupuncture used Today?
Acupuncture is very effective in treating
a variety of painful disorders; both acute and chronic.
It stimulates the body into producing its
own pain relieving chemicals called endorphins.
These chemicals attach to opiate receptor
sites, found throughout the nervous system, resulting in relief of pain.
The improved energy and biochemical
balance produced by acupuncture stimulates the body's natural healing
abilities, reducing inflammation, and promoting physical and emotional
well being.
Modern medicine often includes side
effects and may require surgery. Acupuncture can generally cure the same
medical conditions more effectively with natural remedies.
