Top 10 Reasons To Give Acupuncture A Try
Top 10 Reasons To Give Acupuncture A Try
Acupuncture is a natural therapy that is a form of Chinese medication. It involves inserting hair-thin needles into specific points on the body to stimulate the body’s healing abilities. Acupuncture can be used to heal and overcome a variety of physical and mental health related problems.
Pain Relief
Acupuncture can aid in relieving pain. This is, in part, due to the fact that acupuncture increases the body’s level of endorphins, which are often referred to as “feel good” chemicals. Acupuncture also helps normalize nerve impulses because acupuncture points and the central nervous system are connected.
The Immune System
Evidence has indicated that acupuncture strengthens the body’s immune system and natural resistance. It has been shown that there is an increase in white blood cells, as well as in the level of Alpha, Beta, and Gamma Globulins after an acupuncture treatment. Alpha and Beta Globulins are thought to help white bloods cells better fight infection, while Gamma Globulins assist in the production of immune antibodies.
Drug Recovery
Acupuncture assists in the recovery of drug and alcohol addiction. It does this by helping to reduce withdrawal symptoms, decreasing cravings, relieving tension, and helping people relax. In fact, acupuncture is so successful in drug treatment recovery that many clinics throughout the United States use acupuncture as an integral component of their programs.
Musculoskeletal Disorders
Acupuncture has the ability to release muscle tension, as well as tension in the connective tissues. This allows the lymphatic, nervous, and circulatory systems to function more efficiently. For these reasons, acupuncture is helpful in both prevention and treating musculoskeletal disorders. In fact, sports figures such as Carl Lewis, Charles Barkley, and Jim McMahon are known to use acupuncture in order to improve training and performance, as well as to speed up healing and to manage pain.
Allergies
Allergies are caused by the immune system reacting to substances that are harmless to most people. Environmental factors, such as pollen, dust and chemicals are common causes of allergies. Similar, foods such as milk, wheat, and selfish can cause allergic reactions. Allergies can cause watery eyes, stuffy nose and sneezing. They can also cause more serious problems, such as joint pain, diabetes, glaucoma, kidney problems, depression, heart palpitations and learning disorders. Through acupuncture, the body can be detoxified and the immune system can be strengthened, thereby causing the body to cease having allergic reactions.
Stress
Stress can lead to more serious health problems, such as heart disease, cancer, stroke, and respiratory problems. According to Chinese medicine, stress causes these problems when the liver energy is out of balance. Therefore, acupuncture helps but this energy back into balance, which relaxes the muscles and brings about peace of mind.
Diseases and Disorder
Acupuncture can help with more than 50 different internal medical problems. Some diseases that have been effectively treated with acupuncture include: bronchitis, asthma, diarrhea, ulcers, and hypertension. The exact acupuncture treatment varies depending on the medical condition and may be used in conjunction with other natural therapies, such as herbs and massage.
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is often brought on my depression, stress, or an infection. No matter the direct cause, patients with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome have immune system deficiencies and most have a weakness in their internal organs. Acupuncture can be used to improve the body’s immunity and, therefore, eliminate Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
Menopause
Typical symptoms associated with menopause include night sweats, hot flashes, insomnia, mood swings, and heart palpitations. In Chinese medicine, these symptoms occur when the Yin is out of balance. Yet other symptoms of menopause can include weight gain, hypertension, indigestion, and water retention, these are caused by an imbalance in the Yang. If these are left untreated, it results in a Qi deficiency, which causes feelings of fatigue, a dry vagina, decreases sex drive, lower back pain, cold extremities, and incontinence. Acupuncture therapy has been shown to help get the Yin and the Yang back into balance, thereby reducing the symptoms of menopause.
PMS and Menstruation
Many women experience both emotional and physical pain and discomfort before and after menstruation. Emotional difficulties can include sadness, anger outbursts, depression, and irritability. Physical pains can include pain in the lower back and the lower abdomen. Acupuncture can help bring the body back into balance and eliminate or lesson physical and social pain associated with menstruation.
Acupuncture is a form of traditional Chinese medicine that is quickly gaining acceptance in Western culture for its proven ability to treat emotional and physical problems without the side effects associated with other forms of medication.

Autism & Acupuncture – a natural match // Acupuncture can help to restore balance
Autism is a diagnosis that makes parents cringe. Western medicine has failed to come up with a effective treatment for autism, but some forms of acupuncture have shown positive results.
But first, what really is Autism?
Autism is another conditions that has baffled Western Medicine. When you start reading about this condition you learn much about the symptoms. It affects theability of people to communicate successfully, commonly called a development problem. It is a difficult condition that afflicts children and makes a normal life challenging for them. The cause is unknown , but you can learn a lot reading about it .
Traditional Chinese Medicine will see the cause as some kind of lack of balancein the internal harmony of the body. It has it roots in some kind of problem with the natural flow of vital energy through the body. This is the root cause of any condition that causes the human being to deviate from normal health. Therefore, autism and acupuncture are a natural match.
Acupuncture can help restore the balance that will ultimately result in an improvement of the symptoms.
Recently, a new form of holistic acupuncture has been developed that has shown good results in the treatment of autism symptoms.
A holistic acupuncture form is one where a certain part of the body is thought to contain the entire network of the whole body. In other words, these holistic areas can be miniature maps of the body’s acupuncture points. The ear, hand,and scalp have all been used in this manner.
The new method is tongue acupuncture. The developers of tongue acupuncture admit that the treatment is designed to alleviate symptoms rather than seek a cure. It is effective in calming the child which is a major problem with many autistic patients.
Traditional acupuncture treatments for autismhave shown some good results although they do not often suggest complete cures are possible. In some cases, however, it is reported that the patients have improved to such a degree that afairly normal life is possible. Unfortunately, there is very little in the way of clinical studies that support the claims of acupuncturists on the success of their treatments. There is a need to do more studies and to structure them properly so as to be able to properly evaluate the results.
There is some problem getting children to accept the needling of acupuncture. This reluctance seems to last only for the first few sessions. It appears that the children quickly learn that the procedure is painless, but even more important seem to sense almost at once the calming and improvement it brings to them. There are reports that many patients actually look forward to the treatments as their improvement becomes more pronounced and their ability to communicate improves.

Acupuncture is an effective way to help back pain - www.globalwellnessevolution.com
Acupuncture is an effective way to help back pain
Chinese Medicine and Herbs for Back Pain
1.) TCM and Back Pain
Sometimes back pain is a mystery, but not to everyone. Acupuncturists see back pain differently. Where Western doctors see a solid nerve, practitioners of TCM see the flow of energy (Qi). To the practitioner of Chinese medicine, pain means that flow is impaired. The obstruction may be visible or invisible. Chiropractors can sometimes relieve back pain by adjusting the vertebra, temporarily freeing the flow of qi. But adjustment does not correct the root of aberrant qi.
Acupuncturists and Chinese herbologists often heal back pain when others fail, because Chinese medicine is about understanding what influences the qi. The qi is influenced by both mind and matter, and Qi will influence mind and matter as well. Body structures will ultimately conform to the qi.
2.) Causes of Back Pain
STUCK QI - Channel Pain - Flow No Go
There are at least ten separate flows of energy traversing the back. Much back pain is a sign of obstruction or constraint of qi in the channels. Old or new injuries, emotional constraint, anatomical obstructions, and other events can constrain the qi of the channels.
EXCESS QI - Upper Back Pain - Congested Heat
Upper back pain is commonly caused by interior heat which rises in the channels (heat rises) and lodges in the neck, shoulders, and head causing tension in the muscles.
WEAK QI - Lower Back Pain - Low Batteries
Energy is stored in the low back, keeping the back strong, and holding the spine erect. Depletion of this energy (kidney qi) will weaken the lower back enabling injuries to occur. Stress, injury, illness, overwork, excessive sex, drugs, and over stimulation of the brain, drain the kidney qi and weaken the lower back.
3.) Acupuncture for Back Pain
Acupuncture may be Chinese medicine's best modality for treating pain. Perhaps 70% of my acupuncture patients are being treated for various kinds of pain. By far, low back pain is the most common. This is probably because, short of giving pain killers, Western medicine can do little for back pain sufferers. Acupuncture, on the other hand, can often do much more.
Patients suffering from back pain can expect points to be used in the general area of the pain, but not always. Sometimes the acupuncturist will ask where it hurts, and (if the anatomy permits) insert a needle at that point. These points are known as ashi points, meaning "that's the spot" points. Acupuncture points may also be selected at different spots along relevant channels that supply the effected areas. For example, the point UB 40, located behind the knee will often be chosen to treat low back pain, because the UB channel passes through the lower back. Similarly, the point SI 3, at the outer edge of the 5th finger, can be used to treat problems with the upper back and neck. More on acupuncture for back pain.
