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!
