“In China,you'll find a confusing mixture of modern and traditional medical practices. You may be confused, amused and even frightened by the traditional practices that you see.Though the main ideas and techniques are thousands of years old, the traditional medical practices are still important today. Acupuncture (针灸 zhēnjiǔ) is one of them!”
1
What Is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture(针灸 zhēnjiǔ) is an age-old healing practice of traditional Chinese medicine in which thin needles are placed at specific points in the body. It's primarily used to relieve pain but also has been used to treat other conditions. More than 3 million Americans use acupuncture, but it is even more popular in other countries. In France, for example, one in five people has tried acupuncture.
2
How Acupuncture Works
Acupuncture seeks to release the flow of the body's vital energy or "qì气 " by stimulating points along 14 energy pathways. Scientists say the needles cause the body to release pain -- and may boost blood flow and change brain activity. Skeptics say acupuncture works only because people believe it will, an effect called the placebo effect.
3
Does Acupuncture Hurt?
Acupuncture needles are very thin, and most people feel no pain or very little pain when they are inserted. They often say they feel energized or relaxed after the treatment. However, the needles can cause temporary soreness.

Effectiveness
There isn't yet a consensus in the West about whether acupuncture is effective. The various governing bodies, agencies, and medical societies have differing opinions. Medical surveys or clinical trials also produce differing results. There has been considerable controversy surrounding its value as a therapy and whether it is anything more than placebo. However, many people say that the treatments helped them or relieved chronic pain, and now the procedure has a level of acceptability.
