Origins

The original text of Chinese medicine is the Nei Ching, The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine, which is estimated to be atleast 2,500 years old. Thousands of books since then have been written on the subject of Chinese healing, and its basic philosophiesspread long ago to other Asian civilizations. Nearly all of the forms of Oriental medicine which are used in the West today, includingacupuncture, shiatsu, acupressure massage, and macrobiotics, are part of or have their roots in Chinese medicine. Legend has it that acupuncture developed when early Chinese physicians observed unpredicted effects of puncture wounds in Chinese warriors. The oldestknown text on acupuncture, the Systematic Classic of Acupuncture, dates back to 282 A.D. Although acupuncture is its best knowntechnique, Chinese medicine traditionally utilizes herbal remedies, dietary therapy, lifestyle changes and other means to treat patients.

In the early 1900s, only a few Western physicians who had visited China were fascinated by acupuncture, but outside of Asian-Americancommunities it remained virtually unknown until the 1970s, when Richard Nixon became the first U.S. president to visit China. On Nixon'strip, journalists were amazed to observe major operations being performed on patients without the use of anesthetics. Instead, wide-awakepatients were being operated on with only acupuncture needles inserted into them to control pain. During that time, a famous columnist forthe New York Times, James Reston, had to undergo surgery and elected to use acupuncture instead of pain medication, and he wrotesome convincing stories on its effectiveness.

Today, acupuncture is being practiced in all 50 states by over 9,000 practitioners, with over 4,000 MDs incluing it in their practices.Acupuncture has shown notable success in treating many conditions, and over 15 million Americans have used it as a therapy.Acupuncture, however, remains largely unsupported by the medical establishment. The American Medical Association has been resistant researching it, as it is based on concepts very different from the Western scientific model.

All kinds of neurological and brain treatment and many more diseases are effectively cured in this therapy and acupunture.

How acupuncture is said to work

Acupuncture dates back to at least 100 B.C., which is when an organized system of diagnosis and treatment using needles was first described in writing in China. However, the practice likely precedes this written history, according to Dr. Edzard Ernst, a research physician specializing in the study of complementary and alternative medicine. 

But the modern practice of acupuncture has changed considerably since it was first introduced in China, according to David W. Ramey and Bernard E. Rollin, who describe the evolution of acupuncture in their book "Complementary and Alternative Veterinary Medicine Considered" (Wiley-Blackwell, 2003). By the 18^th century, acupuncture looked much different than the practices described in ancient Chinese texts. And by the early 20^th century, aspiring doctors at the Chinese Imperial Medical Academy no longer studied acupuncture, according to the authors.

However, during the so-called Great Leap Forward of the 1950s and the Cultural Revolution of the 1960s, China's communist leader, Mao Zedong, began actively promoting acupuncture and other traditional medical treatments as "pragmatic solutions to providing health care to a vast population that was terribly undersupplied with doctors," the authors write. There is no evidence to suggest that this revival of the ancient practice of acupuncture resulted in improved health for Chinese citizens, according to the authors.

In traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture is linked to the belief that disease is caused by disruptions to the flow of energy, or qi, in the body. Acupuncture stimulates points on or under the skin called acupuncture points or acupressure points, releasing this qi. The qi then travels through channels called meridians, according to the Center for Spirituality & Healing at the University of Minnesota. 

But the acupuncture treatments carried out in hospitals and other health care facilities in the West today are not based on the same principles that were established in ancient Eastern texts, according to Bao. Western scientists have been trying to study the mechanism of acupuncture for years and have come up with several hypotheses, she said. 

"One major hypothesis is that acupuncture works through neurohormonal pathways. Basically, you put the needle through specific points in the body and stimulate the nerve. The nerve actually sends signals to the brain, and the brain releases neural hormones such as beta-Endorphins. By doing that, the patient may feel euphoric, or happy, and this increases the pain threshold and they feel less pain," Bao said.

Another hypothesis is that acupuncture works by reducing pro-inflammatory markers, or proteins, in the body. Some animal and human studies suggest that by doing acupuncture, you can significantly decrease these pro-inflammatory markers — including TNF and IL-1β — which decreases inflammation and reduces pain, Bao said.  

Yet another hypothesis applies specifically to how acupuncture can be used to treat nerve damage, such as chemo-induced peripheral neuropathy, a condition that often causes numbness or weakness in the feet and hands.

"The idea is that by putting the needle in, you stimulate the brain to secrete some nerve growth factor, and then that helps the nerve to regenerate.

At last I want to inform that If you guys may needed any type of Neuro surgical treatment you guys can consider these type of effective Chinese therapy and acupunture .

The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends acupuncture as an effective treatment for over forty medical problems, including allergies, respiratory conditions, gastrointestinal disorders, gynecological problems, nervous conditions, and disorders of the eyes, nose and throat, and childhood illness, among others. Acupuncture has been used in the treatment of alcoholism and substance abuse. It is an effective and lowcost treatment for headaches and chronic pain, associated with problems like back injuries and arthritis. It has aalso been used to supplement invasive Western treatments like chemotherapy and surgery. Acupuncture is generally most effective when used as prevention or before a health condition becomes acute, but it has been used to help patients suffering from cancer and AIDS.Acupuncture is limited in treating conditions or traumas that require surgery or emergency care (such as for broken bones).
