Acupuncture
What are the principles behind Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is based on a naturalist, holistic philosophy. The sages of ancient China sought to understand human health in terms of the patterns that occur in nature. Over many years, using close observation they traced the various interconnections among the human body. They discovered specific energetic "channels" throughout the body that are the basis of this interconnection, and specific anatomical "points" which can be used to access and influence the information traveling through these channels. Today, acupuncturists draw on this traditional knowledge base along with modern research in order to provide the best possible care for their patients.
