NEURO GATE THEORY-Recent studies have shown that the insertion and manipulation of acupuncture needles in precise locations block the nerve synapse, thereby allowing the nerve to cease firing due to traumatic irritation. This allows the tissue to recover and is good for chronic pain, stiffness and muscle spasms.

IMMUNE SYSTEM-Certain points have been shown to simulate the immune system and stimulate our natural resistance. Phagocytosis, leukocyte production and antiinfectious capability can be increased by stimulating specific points such as Dazhui (Gv 14) Shunxhu (LGV 12)or Jinsou (GV 8).

CIRCULATION-Acupuncture has been shown to promote local circulation in an affected area at the capillary level by adjusting the Automatic Nervous System. This enhances the natural blood and energy flow to an affected area.

BIOCHEMICAL-Stimulating acupuncture points has been shown to increase biochemicals in the body that are useful for healing. For example, acupuncture stimulates the release of endorphins which are important in nerve synapse adjustment and pain analgesia. It also stimulates the release of cortisol which is an antiinflammatory hormone.

BIOENERGETIC REBALANCING-Chinese medical theory, as well as modern European researchers have indicated that the human body functions not only as complex biochemical reactions and processes, but also as an intricate network of bioenergetic interactions and processes as well. Through ancient energetic evaluative techniques (including pulse diagnosis ),as well as modern electronic evaluation, morphologic and even premorphologic conditions can be determined. In Asia, Europe and the United States, Acupuncture techniques are being used to help the body and thereby help reverse morphologic conditions in many cases or reverse premorphologic trends.
