Far more than a technique of inserting tiny thread like needles along meridian flow of the body, Oriental Medicine's complex system of diagnostic method is a consideration of the person as a whole, not just isolated symptoms.
The main objectives of acupuncture treatment are relieving pain and other symptoms, strengthening the immune system, and balancing, harmonizing and integrating the functions of the internal organs with each other, making for a unified, healthy person, rather than a collection of fragmented, disharmonious parts. Oriental Medicine addresses and seeks to find the root or the cause of the problem rather than just merely treating the manifestations of various symptoms. Acupuncture increases the blood circulation to the area where the fine tiny needles are inserted. With increased circulation of blood the muscles relax, and they become tightened.

If you feel out of balance within your body, or even in your life, then I would recommend acupuncture and oriental medicine. Some primary examples of imbalance include: suffering from aches and pains, feelings of youth slipping away, and daily waking up to a mental state of depression and anxiety. Everyone in any state of health, and age, can benefit from acupuncture. This medicine is holistic, and it understands the body and its relationship to nature. On a personal level, acupuncture can help you find who you are, treat illnesses, and help you stay healthy, naturally.
