Acupuncture involves the insertion of hair-thin needles to various "points" on the body. It works to alleviate pain and other sensation type symptoms (numbness, tingling, etc.) by balancing out the relative location on the body. For example pain in the head is often relieved by treating the feet, knee pain by treating the elbow
How does acupuncture fit into the context of Chinese Medicine?
The primary tools of Chinese medicine are qigong exercise prescription, tuina massage/bodywork, acupuncture, herbal therapy and diet, exercise and lifestyle suggestion.
A good Chinese medicine doctor can look at a complicated problem and make it as simple as night and day. This is because they see the relativity of every situation and address it as a matter of balance - like a seesaw tilting either one way or the other.
Acupuncture is such a powerful and effective tool for initiating healing that many practitioners use it as a primary method of healthcare. Having multiple tools in the kit however is helpful for continuing progress in between acupuncture sessions. Many patients also appreciate being involved in their own care with special diet, exercise and herbal recommendations
A Chinese medicine practice focuses first on understanding a patient’s health condition and the multitude of factors influencing their body, mind and spirit. Then a range of tools may be used to profoundly shift their immediate experience in a positive direction. In this way the practice is holistic and not only alleviates pain and illness to improve daily health but also contributes to long-term wellness.
