Traditional Chinese Acupuncture
Over the past 3,000 years, acupuncture has evolved into a complete healing system that includes the diagnosis and treatment of a wide variety of conditions. This unique and ancient system of understanding of the human body incorporates the treatment of the whole person – body, mind, and spirit. Health and harmony is achieved when the correct quantity, quality and movement of Qi (pronounced “Chi”) exists throughout the body. Qi or Life Energy, animates the body and protects it from illness, pain, and disease. Illness or lack of harmony or imbalance), is a result of the reduced quantity, quality and movement of Qi.
What is known about the physiological effects of acupuncture?
The 1997 National Institute of Health (NIH) consensus on Acupuncture reports that “Study has demonstrated that acupuncture can cause multiple biological responses, mediated mainly by sensory neurons, to many structures within the central nervous system. This can lead to activation of pathways, affecting various physiological systems in the brain, as well as in the periphery,”
The NIH Consensus also suggests that acupuncture “may activate the hypothalamus and the pituitary gland, Alteration in the secretion of neurotransmitters and neurohormones, and changes in the regulation of blood flow, both centrally and peripherally, have been documented. There is also evidence of alterations in immune functions produced by acupuncture.”
Acupuncture is recognized by the National Institute of Health (NIH) and the world Health Organization (WHO) to be effective in the treatment of:
Addiction – Alcohol, Drug, Smoking, Anxiety, Arthritis, Arthma, Bronchitis, Carpal tunnel syndrome, Chronic fatigue, Colitis, Facial palsy, Common cold , Constipation, Dental pain, Depression, Diarrhea, Digestive trouble, Dizziness, Dysentery, Emotional problems, Eye problems , Facial palsy, Fatigue, Fertility, Fibromyalgia, Gingivitis , Headache, Hiccough, Incontinence, Indigestion, Irritable bowel syndrome, Low back pain, Menopause, Menstrual irregularities, Migraine, Morning sickness, Nausea, Osteoarthritis, Pain, PMS, Reproductive problems, Rhinitis, Sciatica, Seasonal Affective disorder (SAD), Shoulder Pain, Sinusitis, Sleep disturbances, Smoking cessation, Sore throat, Stress, Tennis elbow, Tonsillitis, Tooth pain, Trigeminal neuralgia, Urinary track infection, Vomiting, Wrist pain
Over the last few decades, research has been conducted seeking to explain how acupuncture works and what it can treat.Below are current theories on the mechanism of acupuncture:
1. Neurotransmitter Theory:
Acupuncture affects higher brain areas, stimulates the secreting of beta-endorphines and enkephaline in the brain and spinal cord. The release of neurotransmitters influences the immune system and the anti-nociceptive system.
2. Autonomic Nervous System Theory:
Acupuncture stimulates the release of norepinephrine , acetylcholine and several types of opioids, affecting changes in their turnover rate, normalizing the autonomic nervous system, and reducing pain.
3. Gate Control Therapy:
Acupuncture actives non-nociceptive receptors that inhibit the transmission of nociceptive signals in the dorsal horn, “gating out” painful stimuli.
4. Vascular- interstitial Therapy:
Acupuncture manipulates the electrical system of the body by creating or enhancing closed-circuit transport in tissues. This facilitates healing by allowing the transfer of material and electrical energy between normal and injured tissues.
5. Blood Chemistry Theory:
Acupuncture affects the blood concentrations of triglycerides, cholesterol, and phospholipids, suggesting that acupuncture can both raise and diminish peripheral blood components, thereby regulating the blood toward homeostasis.
Modern Research & Acupuncture find that this ancient health care system is proving itself as an effective modality for a wide variety of problems. Acupuncture works as an effective alternative and adjunct treatment modality. It is a safe, effective, and natural approach to help regain and maintain health and well being.

Acupuncture & Pain
Acupuncture is a time -tested, safe, effective, natural and drug-free way to eliminate pain. The World Health Organization (WHO) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) acknowledge the benefits of acupuncture in treating and eliminating pain due to a wide range of causes. Not only acupuncture treat symptoms of pain and discomfort, it can also get to the root of the problem.
Traditional Chinese Medicine recognize that there is a vital energy, called Qi (pronounced "chee")circulating within the body. Qi flows through a series of pathways called meridians.Meridians are like rivers within your body. It bring water (Chee) that providees nourishment and life to the land, plants, and people around it.It is important for Qi to flow freely throughout the body. A blockage in the flow of Qi anywhere in the body by injury or other reasons will inhibit the amount of nourishment that reaches our cells,tissues, muscles,organs and glands then people feel pain and other symptoms.
By inserting fine, sterile needles at specific points, an acupuncturist is able to break up blockage that have hampered the smooth flow of Qi. Once this id done, Qi can travel freely throughout the body, promoting pain-free health, wellness and vitality.
