Acupuncture is a method to promote natural healing and improve body function. This is done by inserting sterilized, stainless-steel needles (as fine as a human hair) into specific points located near or on the surface of the skin which have the ability to alter various biochemical and physiological conditions in order to treat a wide variety of illnesses. Traditional Chinese Medicine views a person as an energy system in which body and mind are unified, each influencing and balancing the other. A holistic approach is emphasized treating the whole person. The basic foundation for oriental medicine is that there is a life energy flowing through the body which is called "Qi" (pronounced chee). This energy flows through the body on channels known as meridians that connect all of our major organs. According to Chinese medicine, illness arises when the cyclical flow of Qi in the meridians becomes unbalanced or is blocked. Acupuncture points are areas of designated electrical sensitivity that have been shown to be effective in the treatment of specific health problems. They have been mapped out by the Chinese over a period of over 2000 years.
