Why can a disease be treated with acupuncture?

This is possible because the human body forms an organic unit, in which meridians and collaterals form a connection between the internal organs and between these organs and the surface tissues. Thus, a disease in an organ will affect the whole body through the meridians and points, manifesting itself on the body surface.

Modern scientific research has shown that Acupuncture is able to regulate the functions of various systems of the human body, such as digestion, blood circulation, respiration, urinary tract and in particular, the nervous and endocrine systems. Thus, a pathological state (in which the body is out of balance) is transformed by Acupuncture into a normal physiological state. In addition, Acupuncture can certainly influence the immune system of the body. As a result, Acupuncture treatment can also be applied in the prevention of medical problems.

Studies on pain relief by Acupuncture confirm that Acupuncture can trigger the production of large amounts of analgesics (natural painkillers) in the body. All this makes it clear that by regulating the functions of the human body, Acupuncture can play an important role in pain management and the prevention and treatment of many illnesses.
