What is acupuncture?
Acupuncture has been used in China and other oriental countries
for treatment of multiple diseases and musculoskeletal
conditions for thousands of years. The acupuncture treatment
involves inserting needles into acu-points of the body. The acu-points
are believed to be the reservoir of natural energy, called Qi.
By stimulating the production and movement of the Qi,
acupuncture is able to regulate and balance the Ying and Yang of
our body (opposing aspects of body function). In this way,
acupuncture helps in restoring the body’s natural ability to
heal itself. Depending on the disease or condition treated,
herbology, moxibustion, cupping, infrared light, electronic
stimulation, tuina-massage, or, guasha might be used to enhance
the effects of acupuncture.
Will I feel pain in the acupuncture treatment?
The needles used for acupuncture are very thin (.25 mm in
diameter). When the needles are inserted through the skin,
patients usually do not feel any pain or feel only very slight
pain. When the needles reach the acu-points and the Qi is
stimulated by needle manipulation, the patient may feel some
soreness, numbness, distention or heaviness around the acu-points,
or feel a kind of sensation traveling up or down the meridian,
the body’s energy-carrying channels. Such feelings usually are
the sign of effective treatment.
What kinds of diseases are suitable for acupuncture treatment?
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), acupuncture
can treat more than 120 common diseases and conditions. However,
