Acupuncture is one of the most important therapeutic methods in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It involves the insertion of fine, sterilized metal needles into specific acupoints on the body to prevent and treat a wide range of conditions. Known for its broad clinical applications, significant effectiveness, and simplicity of practice, acupuncture has been a primary healing method in China for thousands of years.
Guided by TCM diagnostic principles—such as the Four Diagnostic Methods (inspection, listening/smelling, inquiry, and palpation) and syndrome differentiation based on the Eight Principles (yin/yang, exterior/interior, cold/heat, deficiency/excess)—acupuncture identifies whether a condition lies in the meridians, collaterals, internal organs, or superficial tissues, and determines its nature as cold or heat, deficiency or excess.
Based on this assessment, practitioners select the appropriate meridians and acupoints, applying acupuncture techniques of reinforcement (tonification) or reduction (dispersion) to regulate the flow of qi and blood, harmonize yin and yang, and thereby achieve the goal of restoring health and preventing disease.
