Acupuncture is often associated with pain control, but in the hands of a well-trained practitioner it has broader applications. A licensed acupuncturist has learned acupuncture, Chinese medicine theory, herbal medicine, Chinese massage, food therapy, and a variety of Asian wellness practices. The World Health Organization recognizes the use of acupuncture in the treatment of a wide range of medical problems, including respiratory, neurological, and muscular disorders. It is particularly useful in resolving problems related to tension, stress, and emotional conditions. Ethan will enlighten us about alternative medicines compatible with health management.
