Acupuncture is considered to be one of the methods of health care, without any side effects and its been in practice for more than 3000 years, however, most of the people just recently realize how effective the acupuncture system is. The phenomenon of Acupuncture is not known to everyone, which could be one of the reasons why people are not aware of its potential benefits. Acupuncture targets the stimulation of the natural healing process that runs without our own body, which most of us don’t know.

Treatments based on acupuncture started almost 3000 years ago when ancient physicians found or discovered a special system of cyclic energy which is also called as Qi (pronounced as chee). This cyclic energy or Qi flows within our body at different internal pathways. These pathways are also called as meridian and every meridian is associated with a specific organ of our body like lungs, heart, kidneys etc. These pathways or the meridians connect to the surface of our body at specific points; called as acupuncture points. Every acupuncture point has its own effect on the Qi flowing in our body through that specific meridian.
