Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) practice that is based on the premise that there is a two-way communication between the skin and all the organs of the body. Qi (pronounced chi), is the body’s life energy, and can become deficient or blocked, causing pain or dysfunction. Qi flows through channels called meridians. By stimulating specific acupuncture points with either hair-thin needles, or sometimes lasers, normal flow of chi can be restored. This can help bring the patient back to normal health. In 1997, the National Institute of Health endorsed acupuncture. The World Health Organization (WHO), endorses acupuncture for a wide range of ailments. Common problems treated with acupuncture include:
Acute and Chronic Gastritis and Colitis
