No one is really sure long people have been using acupuncture to heal. Some sharpened bones found in China that look like acupuncture tools are 8,000 years old. The first medical book detailing acupuncture diagnosis and treatment, The Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine, was written 2,100 years ago and is still useful today. Research continued over the centuries, resulting in The Great Compendium of Acupuncture and Moxibustion. This massive text, compiled during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), summarizes centuries of clinical experience and clearly describes the full set of 365 acupuncture points that are used today. This book is the basis for modern acupuncture and is still a best-seller in its field.

Traditional acupuncture uses ultra-thin steel needles to relieve pain, believing that balance within the body leads to health. Pain and disease are caused by imbalance. Health is restored when balance is returned to the body. Chiropractic techniques and massage therapy are often used to complement acupuncture treatment. After a diagnosis has been determined, the most effective treatment can be provided to the patient. These treatments are often beneficial in treating injuries resulting from an accident of any kind, including motor vehicle accidents and Workmen’s Compensation injuries.
