ACUPUNCTURE TREATMENT AT T&CM CENTRE
Acupuncture is a distinctive therapeutic method unique to China for treating diseases. It is a form of "treating internal diseases externally" in medicine. This technique employs the conduction of meridians, acupoints, and specific manipulation techniques to treat systemic diseases. Acupuncture involves inserting specialized metal needles (usually fine needles) into specific points on the patient's body, guided by principles of traditional Chinese medicine. Techniques such as twirling, lifting, and thrusting stimulate specific areas of the body, aiming to achieve the therapeutic goal of addressing diseases. These points are known as acupoints, which are distributed along the body's meridians. According to the latest acupuncture textbooks, there are a total of 361 primary acupoints on the human body. The application of acupuncture helps to regulate the circulation of vital energy and blood, achieving harmony between the body's yin and yang and harmonizing the functions of organs and meridians, thus preventing and treating diseases.
