The Theory of Acupuncture
Acupuncture has been used throughout the world for thousands of years, yet it remains progressive enough to help treat today's health issues. It is a healing modality that combines art with medicine.
Traditional Chinese Medicine is based on the idea that there are five major "organs" in your body. Each one of these organs has it's own system. They control certain aspects of your life right down to the food that you crave. These systems work together to make a person whole. When one "organ" system gets overworked or misused it throws off the balance of the entire cycle of inter-working systems. Having an off-balance system results in an off-balance body. This is how disease presents itself in a Traditional Chinese Medical model.
