How does Acupuncture work?
Acupuncture works by stimulating specific points in the skin/muscle/nerve that may cause a variety of effects through various physiologic mechanisms. Two of the general ways in which acupuncture works include:
- release of endorphins and endocrine substances which help control the physiology (ie. blood flow, ion flow, metabolism) either locally and/or other areas or more generally in the body.
- nerve reflexes via muscle receptor and/or nerve branch stimulation. These reflexes may go through the spine and/or the brain to trigger actions either locally, in the nervous system, or in other parts of the body
