What Does Acupuncture Actually Treat?

Acupuncture is an ancient, effective method of healing, that works on many levels..Physically, studies have shown that the treatment of the acupuncture points actually change the nerve impulses in the body, causing the desired effect on different areas, depending on the points being treated. It is the main medical treatment method used in China, for a Huge variety of medical conditions. During my internship, I saw acupuncture used for treatment of physical and emotional / mental problems. In western medical terms, health problems involving pain in all parts of the body, muscle weakness, mobility problems, depression symptoms, stomach and bowel problems, bladder problems, lung problems, allergies...I also worked with a Cardiologist from Beijing who treated a patient with cardiac arrhythmias using acupuncture.
Here in the USA, it is being used for treating all types of pain conditions, addiction (smoking &/of drugs / alcohol), insomnia, even reducing the side effects of other treatments, such as chemotherapy.
I have treated clients with fibromyalgia, arthritis, back pain, (lots of pain involved conditions), successfully. I also have treated clients with colitis, bladder control issues, asthma, skin conditions, migraines.... I could go on, but, you get the point, (so to speak). Acupuncture WORKS.
Acupuncture methods include VERY small needles to stimulate the energy, and, other NO needle methods, such as guasha, cupping, topical pain reliever formulas, moxa, ear seeds, and chinese massage (known as Tuina). Needles are NOT the only way to use acupuncture!  
Oriental medicine is based on returning the body to a state of balance, when that balance is present, true health is also present.
