The Secret of Acupuncture
It is believed that acupuncture was established about 2000 years ago in China. Ancient Chinese acupuncturists found that Qi energies flowed in channels called meridian in the body and these were controlling the whole system of the human body. Meridian is a dynamic system of Homeostasis. According to ancient Chinese medicine, disease is a blockage or a slow flow of Qi energy in this system. This means that even though you have a sound brain, nervous and muscular system, the body would not function properly when you have a problem in the Qi energy flow.

Irregular flow of energy causes muscles to stiffen, further causing problems in the body. As stiff muscle doesn't show up on x-ray, CT or MRI scans, stiffness is generally overlooked in western medicine as a cause of a health problem.

However, acupuncture often focuses on stiffness. In many cases, stiff muscles restrict a nerve or a blood vessel and it results in pain or numbness. Acupuncture can loosen stiff muscles very quickly and can eliminate the restriction on a muscle or a nerve. This is why in the majority of the cases acupuncture can provide very rapid improvement.
