About Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a
holistic, wellness-based medical procedure that has
been in practice for more than 2,500 years.
Both preventative and palliative, anyone can benefit
from acupuncture - even those whose problems resist
modern medical methods or when there is no specific
diagnosis.
Acupuncture is
one of the key components of the system of
traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). In the TCM
system of medicine, the body is seen as a delicate
balance of two opposing and inseparable forces: yin
and yang. Yin represents the cold, slow, or
passive principle, while yang represents the hot,
excited, or active principle. Among the major
assumptions in TCM are that health is achieved by
maintaining the body in a "balanced state" and that
disease is due to an internal imbalance of yin and
yang. This imbalance leads to blockage in the
flow of qi (vital energy) along pathways known as
meridians. It is believed that there are 12
main meridians and 8 secondary meridians and that
there are more than 2,000 acupuncture points on the
human body that connect with them. Treatment
involves penetrating the skin with thin, solid,
metallic needles. The needles are tiny in
diameter, just a little larger than a cat
whisker. The sensation caused by an acupuncture
needle varies. Some people feel a little pain
as a needles are inserted, but many people feel no
pain at all.
Five Element
Acupuncture works by looking at the person as a whole
as well as their symptoms. It gives special
attention to the root causes of imbalances and
disease. The Five Element practitioner places
great importance on bringing the Five Elements into
balance, thereby curing the root causes as well as the
symptoms.
How Acupuncture Can Help Acupuncture is a wellness based practice that has been in use for more than 2,500 years. It is a safe, gentle drug-free therapy that can be used to heal disease and imbalances in the body. Acupuncture treats individuals holistically: it focuses on all aspects of a person's body, mind and spirit to achieve the individual's highest potential for health.
Acupuncture has a
long history of use for prevention of disease in
individuals who wish to maintain their wellness.
Many illnesses from colds to cancer, can be
prevented with periodic acupuncture treatments, and
prevention remains a major use of acupuncture today.

PTSD, and the loss of a loved
