There are about 400 different points of the body linked together by “nerve centers.” These “meridians” control the flow of vital life energy forces called qi (pronounced chee). Illness only results when qi is out of balance. To rebalance the energy, trained acupuncturists insert disposable hair-thin stainless steel needles at a slight angle to stimulate a new flow of healing energy.
Western medicine understands the release of “endorphins” vital to energizing the body’s attempts to protect and restore itself when threatened. Chinese medicine produces results by stimulating the natural defenses of the body with acupuncture and natural herbs. It is a self-healing system that has produced results for thousands of years without unnecessary surgery or the use of drugs with serious side effects.

10 BENEFITS OF TRADITIONAL CHINESE MEDICINE
1. All-natural. The top benefit that comes from traditional Chinese medicine is that the medicine is all natural. Although the herbs that are used in the medicine may have some side effects, it is nothing compared to the side effects from modern medicine.
2. The source. With traditional Chinese medicine they had more of a goal of finding what was causing the illness and healing it. They did not just choose to focus on healing the symptoms. Modern medicine tends to just treat the symptoms.
3. Range. Traditional Chinese medicine has been known to treat a broad range of things. It is able to treat things from headaches and PMS to things like helping to treat addictions and the common flu.
4. Improve general health. It is able to improve a persons health overall. This is because it does not rely on things such as modern drugs. Because of this you do not get all the side effects that would normally occur, such as drowsiness from the medication.
5. Balance. Traditional Chinese medicine has started to become favored because it does not just focus on the physical part of being ill. It works on returning the mind, body and the soul to proper balance.
6. Focused. With this type of medicine, it is more focused on trying to find a diagnosis. An example of this is with a cold. In traditional Chinese medicine, they do not just categorize it as a cold; they try to figure out exactly what type of cold it is.
7. Potency. A good thing is the potency of the cures. Most of the Chinese treatments are made at a low heat so that the herbs are able to hold on to their potency and remain as effective as they can be.
8. Treatments. Unlike with modern medicine, the Chinese medicine offers a broader range of treatments. With modern medicine the main thing is usually to get prescribed some medication, but with traditional Chinese medicine there are things like herbs, massage and food therapies, among other things.
9. Side effects. There are very few side effects with the herbs. Unlike with the modern medications, where some of the side effects can be very dire, most of the effects that come with herbs for the most part are harmless.
10. Multiple Uses. With traditional Chinese medication there are usually multiple uses, such as calming anxiety or helping with sleep, or even being a tonic for things like blood and nerves.
