Acupuncture In Miami – What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture has been a Chinese medicine used for more than 5000 years in Eastern countries and throughout the world. It is, at the same time, natural and is founded in empirical science. It is applied jointly to Western medicine and in hospitals and private clinics in China. Acupuncture has been practiced in North America for more than forty years.
Acupuncture is founded on two great principles of Chinese medicine. The first is that of Yin and Yang. Yin and Yang symbolizes two opposite parts existing in all phenomena, and all objects in reciprocal relation to the natural environment. For example, the woman is Yin and the man is Yang, water is Yin and fire is Yang. Yin and Yang are opposed, are supplemented, and cannot exist one without the other. The second principle is that of the five elements. The universe is formed by the movement and the transformation of five elements represented by: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water. This theory is used to explain physiology and pathology as well as the relations between the organization and the surrounding medium.
Acupuncture In Miami – What are the main differences between acupuncture and traditional medicine?
Acupuncture, compared to traditional medicine, considers the body as a whole, i.e., that not only the symptoms of the disease are studied, but also all of the body. A good evaluation can take up to one hour thirty and include a detailed questioning of each aspect of health, an observation of the language and body, the measuring of the various pulses and the manipulation of certain strategic points of the body, located on the meridian lines. In this way, it is possible to determine the initial cause of the problem thus treating it with the source and ensuring that the problem does not recur.
Moreover, when one deals with problems by using acupuncture it is not rare to note that several other symptoms can improve gradually since the source of the initial problem is often the source of other problems. For example, a person who presents with abdominal distensions after meals. This person, according to Chinese medicine, probably has an insufficiency of QI (energy) on the level of Spleen. By invigorating the QI of the Spleen, it is very probable that certain symptoms such as tiredness, headaches, nausea and diarrhoea improve in addition to the initial problem.
For this reason it is important to determine the cause of each problem and to treat it at its source. A Miami acupuncturist can establish several links between symptoms which a person presents and thus succeed in regulating several problems in the same series of treatments.
