Acupuncture - how does it work?
The term acupuncture comes from Latin from two words: acus - "needle" and puncture - "puncture". As the name suggests, the method involves piercing the body with special needles at specific points on the body. Traditional Chinese medicine is based on an ancient physiological system in which human health is a state of equilibrium between the opposing forces of Yin and Yang forming a whole. The body should be in harmony with nature at the same time. Internal disharmony blocks the vital energy (qi) that accumulates in the internal organs. It flows along 12 main meridians and 8 additional meridians, called miraculous. Blocking the vital energy may cause various types of pain, detected by palpation. Balance can be restored by puncturing the appropriate acupuncture points along the meridians.
Here, at Zen clinic, we know that the Chinese systematized points located all over the body. Many of them are e.g. on the sole of the feet, at the spine on the back and around the ears. According to a long Eastern tradition, it is said that there are about 360 such points on the human body. The needles used for the procedures consist of: an ear, a needle, a handle and a member. The needles are made of stainless, solid steel, often additionally covered with silver or gold.
The treatment at Zen Clinic in Fremont, first consists in locating the point, disinfecting the needles, although disposable and the patient's skin and puncture are used. One of the modern methods based on traditional acupuncture is electroacupuncture. It consists in connecting needles to the pulse generator. Practitioners have the greatest knowledge about piercing the body with needles. They distinguished three main ways in which acupuncture works on the human body:
local influence - affecting blood vessels by expanding them in a specific place, which affects their permeability;
segmental reaction - tissues belonging to the same or adjacent metamer (ring) of the body are stimulated;
central action - during the puncture of specific points of the body, stimuli travel to the brain and release endorphins, which are happiness hormones. It has an analgesic effect.
