Acupuncture
Acupuncture is the art and science of regulating
the body's energy to relieve pain, treat and prevent
illness, an to promote health and well being. The ancient
Chinese base their system of medicine on an energetic
model of the body. In this system Qi (energy)
flows through energy pathways also called channels or
meridians. These pathways traverse the body in a similar,
but not identical, manner to the nervous and blood circulatory
systems. There is pain and/or disease in the body when
the Qi is not free flowing. Oriental medicine
balances the flow of Qi in the channels by directing
it to areas where it is deficient and draining it from
where it is in excess.
