Acupuncture




Acupuncture






















Acupuncture is a
3,000-year-old healing technique of Traditional Chinese Medicine


Acupuncture improves the
body’s functions and promotes the natural self-healing process by stimulating
specific anatomic sites--commonly referred to as acupuncture points, or
acupoints.   most common method used to
stimulate acupoints is the insertion of fine, sterile needles into the skin.







Pressure, heat, or electrical stimulation may further enhance the effects.
Other acupoint stimulation techniques include: manual massage, moxibustion or
heat therapy, cupping, and the application of topical herbal medicines and
linaments.


Traditional Chinese
Medicine is based on an ancient philosophy that describes the universe, and the
body, in terms of two opposing forces: yin and yang. When these forces are in
balance, the body is healthy.


According to authoritative sources there are
361 points, mostly arranged in 'meridians', which
can be seen on charts (The Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine 1975).







During the treatment
first, your acupuncturist will ask about your health history. Then, he or she
will examine your tongue’s shape, color, and coating, feel your pulse, and
possibly perform some additional physical examinations depending on your
individual health needs. Using these unique assessment tools, the acupuncturist
will be able to recommend a proper treatment plan to address your particular
condition. To begin the acupuncture treatment, you lay comfortably on a
treatment table while precise acupoints are stimulated on various areas of your
body.


The frequency and number
of treatments differ from person to person. Some people experience dramatic
relief in the first treatment. For complex or long-standing chronic conditions,
one to two treatments per week for several months may be recommended


cupuncture
may work by causing physical responses in nerve cells, the pituitary gland, and
parts of the brain, affecting blood pressure and body temperature. Laboratory
and animal studies of acupuncture for cancer treatment suggest acupuncture may
also help the immune system be stronger during chemotherapy.


The
strongest evidence of the effect of acupuncture has come from clinical trials
on the use of acupuncture to relieve nausea and vomiting, but acupuncture
appears to be more effective in preventing vomiting than in reducing nausea.





Hundreds of clinical
studies on the benefits of acupuncture show that it successfully treats
conditions ranging from musculoskeletal problems (back pain, neck pain, and
others) to nausea, migraine headache, anxiety, depression, insomnia, and
infertility.

talking to children

 A study has found that older adults talking to children more at an early age can help shape their brains. Past studies and research have shown that talking to young children has many benefits. As it improves children's use of language and increases vocabulary. The research concluded that they discovered a link between the amount of talking adults do to children and a compound in children's brains called myelin, which surrounds nerves and makes signals more effective. Lead author of the study Professor John Spencer, from the University of East Anglia, said it sends the message that talking to your children is important. Interestingly, this process shapes the structure of the brain.
