In Miami Acupuncture Has Become A Health Care Mainstay

By Jaclyn Hurley


The discipline that Miami acupuncture experts practice is part of traditional Chinese medicine . The goal of this discipline (and the closely related moxa) is the cure and prevention of diseases. It is an energy- based form of medicine which aims to achieve a balance between Yin and Yang . A disease is in fact considered a disturbance of this balance. Yin and Yang can be compared best with the terms of matter and energy in modern physics.

The idea had begun to win the West over. More and more, this is becoming seen less as an alternative medicine and more as a complement to Western medicine. Along with this, homeopathy is the most accepted form of "alternative" medicine. In a nutshell, by the grace of energy, as everyone will agree, this form of treatment looks to address many issues of modern life. In the diagnosis and treatment, the term "energy" is only used as a guide.

The body's energy circulates through "energy lines", called meridians, throughout the body. Each organ has its own meridian. These meridians form a complex network together, through which energy is passed. This is a network with many relationships with every part of the body. An energy problem in the colon path, for example, could partly be the cause of shoulder pain, but also cause symptoms in the intestines, and even constipation.

Inserting needles is the most common technique and is currently widely spread in the West. The acupuncturist will choose from more than 1000 points, each with its own function in the recovery of disturbed energy. Fine needles are inserted with the intention to improve the energy flow so that the Ying-Yang balance is recovered. To achieve this effect, the acupuncturist will move the needle slightly, giving the body a tingling sensation (the Chinese call this Deqi).

Imbalance, however, can impair the body's ability to self- heal. In that case, the energy will have to be brought back into balance and the use of acupuncture can offer a positive outcome. The points that specialists work on, lie on the so- called meridians. Through stimulating these points with thin needles, the acupuncturist can influence the flow of energy through the body.

As with any therapy, the "patient" will, of course, have to notice the effect after more than one treatment. The discipline was originally a part of traditional Chinese medicine and has been used for thousands of years. It activates the natural healing ability of the person.

Nutrition is another vital aspect of a holistic approach by an acupuncturist. A balanced diet is very important for supporting or relieving certain organs. With relatively little effort, it can actively contribute to the healing process. Depending on the difficulty of diagnosis, and the techniques used, a full treatment can vary from twenty minutes to one and a half hours.

Acupuncture is also increasingly recognized as an important complement to conventional medicine. Treatment has no adverse side effects to be expected in the disease process, as some medications can have. The healing art originated about just over 3,500 years ago in mainland China. The original name was Zhenjiu. The contemporary term is derived from the Latin words acus (needle) and punctura (puncture). It indicates the warming points or areas on the person's skin and the experts in Miami, FL are among the best on the planet.
