Ever wondered about acupuncture? Well today, we will be taking a look at all things acupuncture, which is a treatment where many small, thin needles are placed at various points in the body to promote healing and pain relief. Acupuncture is backed by research which shows it promotes pain relief, so let’s break it down in today’s article.
An acupuncturist will insert small needles into the body. This balances energy, which in turn boosts well being and treats several illnesses. Some of these include headaches, blood pressure, and whooping cough, but we will get into more later on.
Where exactly does acupuncture come from? Well, acupuncture stems very far back, being a practice of traditional Chinese medicine. They explain that health is a result of the balance of the yin and yang of the ultimate life force “qi.”
Illnesses are what causes any imbalances to these forces. The qi flows through different meridians and pathways of the body, which the acupuncture needles can access through about 350 different points. The insertion of needles at various places is what puts the body back into balance.
Some research found in Germany claims that acupuncture helps with the following and other conditions:
- low back pain
- neck pain
- osteoarthritis
- knee pain
