How Does Acupuncture Work?

A part of the conventional Chinese medical system is acupuncture. The history of this medical procedure dates back thousands of years. The main theory behind acupuncture is based on the idea that the body has patterns of energy flow called "Qi" that are thought to be crucial for wellness. The disturbance of this flow, according to the Chinese, is what causes sickness.
