- What is Acupuncture?
- Acupuncture has been used as a healing modality for over 3,000 years. Although what is called acupuncture comprises several different therapies (known collectively as Traditional Chinese Medicine, or TCM), the best-known application is the gentle insertion of very fine needles at specific points on the body. These points have been shown to be effective in the treatment of various health problems (in the past three decades, electromagnetic research has confirmed the existence and locations of these points). The benefits of acupuncture have become widely recognized and integrated with mainstream healthcare. Acupuncture takes into consideration the person as a whole. The aim is to not only eliminate the symptoms, but also to treat the underlying cause, increase function, and improve vitality.
