For several thousand years the practice of acupuncture has been shrouded in mystery, superstition and folklore.  The application of acupuncture to treat specific conditions has been passed down from generation-to generation.  Until recently, the physician practicing acupuncture had to rely on tradition, faith and experience when  formulating an acupuncture prescription for his patient.  But with the advent of modern technology today's physician practicing acupuncture can formulate a prescription for his patient based on the latest scientific technology available.  And believe me when I tell you, that it does make a difference when you received acupuncture based on science versus acupuncture based on faith.

The top picture to the right shows an acupuncture needle inserted into my forearm. Why would I choose to insert a needle at that location? If I practiced traditional acupuncture, I might insert a needle there because a textbook written 2000 years ago tells me to.  Now look at the picture directly to the right.  It is of a magnetic resonance neurogram; one of the most sophisticated imaging techniques  available.  The image shows the lingual nerve in the face (*). The modern practice of neurologically based acupuncture, would help guide me to choose an acupuncture point based on neuroanatomy rather than tradition or folklore. The bottom picture is a functional MRI of the brain. The f~MRI is another example of 21st century technology that is being used to make acupuncture more scientific and more effective. It shows how proper selection of acupuncture points can literally "light-up-the-brain".   We now know that acupuncture works via the nervous system, so you have a choice to make: Do you want acupuncture based on folklore or based on the most modern concepts in neuroscience? We believe that choice is a simple one! Call us today to learn more.   623.547.4727
