How Does Acupuncture Work?
According to modern scientific research, needling the acupuncture
points stimulates the nervous system to release chemicals in the
muscles, spinal cord, and brain. These chemicals will either reduce or
change the experience of pain, or they will trigger the release of other
chemicals and hormones which influence the body’s own internal self-
regulating system. Many researchers studying acupuncture do not
discount that completely unknown mechanisms might be at work as well.
The improved neurological function and biochemical balance produced
by acupuncture results in stimulating the body’s innate natural healing
abilities, and in promoting physical and emotional well-being.
