What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is the second most widely used medical system in the world. It is an ancient system of medicine and healing, used for over 3000 years. Classical acupuncture springs from a vast body of knowledge collected and compiled over the centuries by the Chinese.
Acupuncture is a perfect complement to many standard Western therapies and treatments. It is recognized by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the World Health Organization (WHO) as a safe, natural, drug-free, and effective medical system for addressing symptoms and the root causes of a broad spectrum of health disorders.
Acupuncture is effective for a wide variety of conditions through its power to stimulate the body’s own innate healing response. It is a system of diagnosing and then treating disease using fine needles inserted into specific points on the body, called acupuncture points.
There are 361 major acupuncture points located throughout the body on the “principal channels." These channels are the principal energetic pathways that connect the points into the body’s primary energy system. This energetic system interfaces with the physical body and the complex functional aspects of the organ systems. Thus, acupuncture and moxabustion on these points and channels can affect the harmonious functioning and healing of the organ energetic systems.
The immune, nervous, digestive, circulatory, and endocrine systems are all influenced by the use of acupuncture and moxabustion. Since acupuncture encourages the body’s own innate healing and balance, it can support faster healing from surgeries, radiation, chemotherapy, strains, sprains, etc.
