How does it differ to Traditional Chinese Acupuncture?
The basis of it is based primarily on the effects that have been confirmed by western science, rather than traditional oriental medical theory. Typically According to traditional Chinese philosophy, our health is dependent on the body’s motivating energy – known as Qi – moving in a smooth and balanced way through a series of channels beneath the skin. Qi consists of equal and opposite qualities – Yin and Yang – and when these become unbalanced, illness may result. By inserting fine needles into the channels of energy, an acupuncturist can stimulate the body’s own healing response and help restore its natural balance.
