Acupuncture Points - altMD.com Article. Acupuncture is a method of Oriental Medicine treatment that inserts needles into acupuncture points to alter our physiological functioning. There are hundreds of acupuncture points that influence the flow of energy, or Qi, in the body. Most of the classical acupuncture points exist along meridians that channel the energy up and down the surface of the body and to deeper levels where they connect with the internal organs and other meridians. What are Acupuncture Points? Scientists have conducted studies and determined that acupuncture points are areas of low impedance on the surface of the skin, meaning that these spots are able to conduct electricity more easily than other surrounding areas.

The Nei Jing, or Inner Classic, described 160 acupuncture points on the body. Recently, there is an international movement to standardize the location of all major acupuncture points on the body so that clinical trials and other research can be conducted more efficiently.

Il existe 5 pratiques de la Médecine traditionnelle chinoise (MTC) pour entretenir ou restaurer la santé. Il s'agit de la pharmacopée, de l'accupuncture, de la diététique chinoise, du massage Tui Na et les exercices énergétiques (Qi Gong et Tai-chi). La pharmacopée chinoise est expérimentée depuis plus de 3000 ans, avec plusieurs milliers de substances. La différence entre la pharmacologie occidentale et l'herboristerie traditionnelle, c'est que la première mise généralement sur un ingrédient actif pour régler un problème alors que la seconde quant à elle, mise sur l'effet conjugué des diverses composantes de la plante.

En herboristerie chinoise, plusieurs plantes sont utilisées en même temps afin de profiter de la synergie de plusieurs ingrédients ayant des propriétés proches. Ceci minimise les effets secondaires et néfastes que pourrait causer la prise d’une seule plante en grande quantité.
