How the Acupuncture Technique Works?

For the Acupuncture treatment, an ancient Chinese traditional treatment, it is assumed that there are number of channels or medians in the human body through which the ‘life force’ or ‘qi’ flows. And for any reason like stress or body developments, if any median or channel blocked it leads to illness and complications in human body. The Acupuncture technique is used to remove those blocks and allow the ‘qi’ to flow throughout the body as usual. In the Acupuncture treatment, needles are used to release the ‘qi’ by piercing it on clogged medians.

The scientific Reason to Use Atlanta Acupuncture

Recently two scientists of Lund university Hospital in Sweden, Dr. Christer Carlsson and Dr. Bengt Sjlund, have conducted a study on fifty chronically suffering patients of lower back pain for at least 6 months. The aim of the study was to prove the effectiveness of Atlanta Acupuncture for lower back pain. This study is published by the Clinical Journal of Pain in their recent publication. Among these patients, 17 and 33 were men and women respectively. These patients were divided in three groups randomly. One group asked to undergo Atlanta Acupuncture, another to undergo electro acupuncture and the third group asked to undergo placebo.

Once the four sessions completed, they have been asked to undergo follow up treatment after two months. It has been observed that the group underwent the Atlanta Acupuncture shows remarkable recovery from lower back pain. From this study the scientists have come to conclusion that the Atlanta Acupuncture has clinically proved to be useful treatment for many chronic pains.
