Acupuncture Schools Gaining Acceptance
Acupuncture schools teach an ancient healing art that is among the oldest medical procedures still in use today. Acupuncture is believed to have originated and is known to have been used for over 2,000 years in China. Acupuncture was not broadly accepted, nor even familiar, in the United States until the mid 20th century.
Acupuncture involves stimulation of points on the body using several techniques of medical traditions from China, Korea, and Japan. The most well known acupuncture technique involves the insertion of thin needles at specific points just below the surface of the skin. Good acupuncture schools teach electrical stimulation of applied needles to affect responses of body functions that promote balance and improve health.
Though most feel no or minimal pain as needles are inserted, patients experience the acupuncture differently; treatments can relax or energize the patient as blocked energies begin to flow along meridians.
