Acupuncture

AcupunctureAcupuncture is a very traditional healing method in China that has been used for more than 4000 years ago. Today, it is used throughout the world to treat hundreds of different ailments. Acupuncture involves the insertion of hair-thin sterile needles at specific points on the body to promote or direct the flows of energy & fluids (Qi & blood) in our body. Our bodies are nourished by these flows, such as a garden is irrigated by canals or trenches. In a garden, irrigating flows are regulated by gates or valves. In our bodies, these gates are the acupuncture points (known as meridian points), and by manipulating them an acupuncture doctor helps to control the flow of energy. Acupuncture is especially beneficial in stimulating the nervous system (because needling can effect peripheral nerves, which reaches the central nervous system). Some studies even reveal that acupuncture makes endorphins which are morphine-like substances made naturally in your body. Some believe that is the mechanism behind the effectiveness of acupuncture.
