What is Acupuncture? INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITION TYPES OF ACUPUNCTURE PHILOSOPHY Mechanisms of Action Indications for Acupuncture GLOBAL COLLEGE-COURSES
Acupuncture is an alternative medicine methodology originating in ancient China that treats patients by manipulating thin, solid needles that have been inserted into acupuncture points in the skin. According to Traditional Chinese medicine, stimulating these points can correct imbalances in the flow of qi through channels known as meridians

The general theory of acupuncture is based on the premise that bodily functions are regulated by an energy called qi which flows through the body; disruptions of this flow are believed to be responsible for disease.
Acupuncture describes a family of procedures aiming to correct imbalances in the flow of qi by stimulation of anatomical locations on or under the skin (usually called acupuncture points or acupoints), by a variety of techniques
The most common mechanism of stimulation of acupuncture points employs penetration of the skin by thin metal needles, which are manipulated manually or by electrical stimulation.[
Good health is balance btwn man & the natural world; balance btwn Yin & Yang; everything has a Y&Y component
Yin - assoc w/ earth, coldness, dampness Yang - assoc w/ heaven, sky, warmth,
dryness Balance is regulated by the flow of chi
(qi); the “life energy” flowing along meridians. Imbalance disrupts flow of chi - resulting in pain or illness - stimulation of points restores balance.
Most points are highly conductive High concentrations of free nerve endings and
sensory receptors have been are commonly found at points.
Electroacupuncture causes increased levels of beta-endorphin in the CSF
Some parasympathetic effects have been documented - lowered BP & stress; even fainting/hypnotic state
Moderately strong relationship between trigger points, motor points & acupuncture points (location)
Possible placebo effect Unknown – traditional Chinese philosophy (mysticism)
fMRI with blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) measurements
Acupuncture points: rich in neuroreceptors
Modulates pain network via analgesic effects
CNS hormones release in hypothalamus and limbic system
Causes changes in interpretation of pain
Fascia is bath of conductive fluid General tx (2-8 Hz)
• Enkephalin released from periaqueductal gray• Endorphin released from the hypothalamus• May be reversed/blocked by Naloxone
Local tx (above 10 Hz) Dynorphin released in spinal cord Activates low-threshold skin and muscle
receptors Serotonin/Norepinephrine released in
midbrain

The NIH consensus panel stated that promising results emerged, for example, efficacy of
acupuncture in:adult post-operative and chemotherapy nausea and vomitingpostoperative dental pain.
Classic Acupuncture- Needling- Needling w/ manual stimulation of needle- Needling w/ electrical stimulation thru needle
Physical Therapy on acupuncture pts.- Manual pressure (acupressure)- TENS on the points- Laser on the points- Ultrasound on the points
The Prescription method: certain points are for particular clinical presentations & symptoms. A Western adaptation
Stimulate point in the same area as the pain / stimulate known MTPs in the area / stimulate Ah Shi points
Classical method: Holistic assessment w/ detailed understanding on body, mind, lifestyle, environment, etc.. (ie. Yin & Yang)
