Chinese AcupunctureChinese Acupuncture is a more than 2000 year-old Chinese system of healing that places very fine needles in strategic areas of the body to promote healing of its unhealthy parts. The flow of Qi (chee) and blood through established channels or meridians in the body is stimulated by placing a small needle in a specific area to bring more Qi and blood to the painful area. Qi is not definable in western medical terminology. It signifies movement or energy. The reason for most ailments is some kind of blockage in the body; the system is gridlocked. Stimulating the Qi and blood opens avenues to allow the body to heal itself. Interestingly enough, there is no word in the Chinese culture for inertia, which in western terms, is precisely the problem. The major pathways for Qi in your body, called meridians, connect your internal organs and traverse outwards to link with your extremities which lay on the exterior of the body. There are fourteen major energy channels that course through the human body including the head, arms, hands, legs, feet, torso and internal organs. Chinese acupuncture works by opening up any blockage or gridlock of the amount, flow or balance of Qi. You will experience any blockage of Qi by experiencing ill health, pain of (or) a lack of well-being. Acupuncture has the capability of balancing and moving this energy flow so the organs and body systems can work together. This harmony then provides a basis for the body to heal itself and maintain its own good health.
