Theory of Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a system of therapy involving the needing of precisely specified points on the surface of the body.

This is in accordance with a coherent physiology derived from the philosophical concepts of humans and their relationships with the natural environment.

Fundamental to oriental philosophy in general and acupuncture in particular is concept of Qii (energy in English) .

This energy- which seems to correspond to fluctuations in the body's electro magnetic field- is  described as flowing along pathways near the surface of the skin( It is called Kyongrak).

Evaluation of the exact nature and degree of energy imbalance, resulting in disease is the aim of traditional oriental diagnostic procedures.

These involve a precise, sequental consideration of data, obtained by clinical observations, interrogations and palpation of the pulse.

It is based on the Yin and Yang theory as well as the interaction of the five elements. ( Wood, Fire, Water, Metal and Earth )

Korean medicine doctors consider the human body as a whole. Any Illness is not an isolated ailment of a particular organ but instead a disharmony between more than one organs. Other factors a Korean medicine doctors would consider during diagnosis are the living environment, social relationship, climate conditions as well as the diet factors. Emphasis is placed on harmonizing the function of the body, thereby the body heals itself (similar to improving the immune system of the body in a western concept).

It has the properties of warming and removing obstruction of the channels. eliminating the cold and damp factors and thus promoting the function of the organs. It is considered that the order the moxawool the better
