Introduction to Acupuncture

For at least 2,500 years, acupuncture has been an integral part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). However, recently as more people in western countries are diagnosed with chronic disease poorly treated with modern medical therapies, many are turning to acupuncture, moxibustion and other forms of alternative medical treatments. Based on the theory of harmonious flowing Qi being the basis of good health, acupuncture focuses on restoring Qi by manipulation of the complementary and opposing elements of yin and yang.
