Acupuncture is the thousand years tested clinical modality originated in China and Asia and practiced all over the world today. The history of acupuncture stands for myriads of empirical studies and experiences of how the entire body is connected in pathways that are more than the common discovery of blood vessels and nervous systems. The communication of all the parts of the body is more sophisticated than the dichotomy of organs and tissues that have been claimed and studied in the later established medical societies. The stimulation of fine (like a hair thickness) and sterile needles in specific parts of the body excites the neurological, vascular, and hormonal systems to communicate with the brain and the dysfunctional parts of the body to bring about the self-healing properties in the body to restore the homeostasis of the body. The most noticeable effects are found in pain reduction/elimination, emotional wellness, and balancing organic functions (i.e., lowering blood pressure, calming digestive systems, strengthen the immune systems, and increase blood flood to organs for healing purpose).
