The Skinny on Acupuncture….
Acupuncture originated in China and East Asia and dates as far back as prehistoric times. The method is based on using pressure and/or needles to activate meridians in the body. It is often used to relieve pain, addictive cravings and blockages in blood flow throughout the body. Acupuncture is based on the view that the healthy body is able to maintain a balance between it’s the yin and yang aspects. When that balance is no longer able to be maintained, a person may get sick. Acupuncture treatment helps to bring the body back into a healthy balance.
A licensed Acupuncturist that who is trained in this ancient art went to an accredited school. There is a lot of scientific and anecdotal evidence that demonstrates acupuncture is effective. It is most effective when used holistically with other modes of therapy and healing. Today, it is not unusual for a hospital have an acupuncturist come in and help treat patients for chronic pain.
