THE 5 REASONS WHY
ACUPUNCTURE WORKS
WWW.THEACUPUNCTURISTSLTD.COM
The ancient Chinese had theories
thousands of years ago on how it works.
It's not pure magic, but it was far more
likely that the ancient Chinese healers
saw that acupuncture had tangible results
for their patients.
People who underwent acupuncture
had their brains scanned via MRI, and
it turned out that different brain
areas get affected by other
acupuncture points.
Introducing acupuncture needles into
the body can stimulate it to produce
various hormones that regulate pain,
hunger, fertility and more.
Nowadays, we have a more scientific
explanation for why acupuncture
does what it does. It's one of the
reasons why we understand that
acupuncture needles cause an
immune response in the body.
Fascia is the connective tissue running
through your whole body. It wraps the
muscles and connects them to the
bones. It wraps around your organs, as
well as your brain, and it runs throughout
your body.
Many people wonder why acupuncture does what it
does and how it works. There are many theories and
studies every year to determine that, but overall
there are quite a few opinions on the matter.
