Acupuncture or needle therapy, involves the insertion of very thin, solid, hair like needles at specific points of the body.
In Chinese terms, these specific points are referred to as neuro nodes and have a distinct affect on the central and peripheral nervous system.
In fact, recently in the United States, most people who seek this ancient medicine, use it primarily for acute and chronic pain.
The stimulation of these points, triggers the release of our body's own natural pain relieving properties such as endorphins and enkephalins.
I had been dealing with this condition for about twenty years, among many other health issues.
The pain was so intense and constant that it has also caused fatigue, difficulty sleeping, irritability and some depression.
After beginning my treatments, I began feeling improvement after my second appointment.
Within two weeks of treatment I can confidently say I feel the best I have felt in 20 years.
I feel more lively and I'm getting my best sleep in a long time.
During the treatment I felt relaxed and rested.
Yes, in fact, the National Institute of Health (NIH) states that "the occurrence of adverse events in the practice of Acupuncture has been documented to be extremely low."
Acupuncture is recognized by the National Instiute of Health (NIH) and World Health Organization (WHO) as being effective in treating the following conditions.
Due to our early traumatic experiences with needles from shots and vaccines, this is the most common question asked about acupuncture.
The needles used during an acupuncture session are roughly the thickness of a cat's whisker, and are typically painless when used for insertion.
The lymphatic system, which is closely linked with the immune system, helps our body by moving and excreting waste products, cell debris, toxicities and other foreign material.
Our cells function by releasing these waste products and then replenishes by absorbing nutrients from the surrounding extracellular fluid.
When the skin is pulled up it removes stagnant blood and toxicicities to the surface.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, tight and painful back is caused by invading "pathogenic factors" of cold, damp, heat, or wind, which in turn cause "Qi" stagnation or blood stasis.
