Acupuncture In China, Acupuncture has been a major part of primary healthcare for the last 5000 years. Acupuncture is used to prevent and treat disease and relieve pain. Acupuncture is an element of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Chinese Acupuncture, Herbs and Tui-Na (therapeutic massage) are holistic therapies to re-balance the mind, body and spirit. The symptoms an individual presents with are a reflection of an underlying pattern of disharmony. This pattern can arise from factors such as constitution, diet, climate and emotions. "The disease may be the same, but the people suffering it are different". Energy channels ("meridians") flow over the surface of the body. Any disruption to the flow disturbs the balance and leads to illness. Each channel is associated with a specific organ and when an illness (on a physical or emotional level) affects that organ, it can be reflected in the state of the channel it travels through. Acupuncturists can improve the flow of the life energy 'Qi' by needling points on these channels, which can positively affect the state of the organs. What can acupuncture treat?
