ACUPUNCTURE

FAMOUS THERAPIES

                Acupuncture is a technique of inserting and manipulating filiform needles into "acupuncture points" on the body with the aim of restoring health and well being, e.g., treating pain and diseases. Acupuncture is thought to have originated in China and is most commonly associated with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Different types of acupuncture are practiced and taught throughout the world.

Acupressure is a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) technique based on the same ideas as acupuncture. acupressure involves placing physical pressure by hand, elbow, or with the aid of various devices on different acupuncture points on the surface of the body. Traditional Chinese Medicine does not usually operate within a scientific paradigm but some practitioners make efforts to bring practices into an evidence-based medicine framework.
