What is Acupunture?

Acupuncture has been practiced for over 3,000 years. Here’s a simple explanation. Acupuncture is a non-invasive technique with strong roots under Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that treats various conditions by inserting thin needles into specific body points at different depths to balance the body’s life energy (Qi). Acupuncture has seen an increase in popularity due to its various health benefits as well its increased relevance as an alternative treatment to complement Western practices, providing a more holistic approach.

HOW IT WORKS

How Does Acupuncture Work?

Acupuncture treatment may sound complex, but it is simply based on the principle of achieving a harmonious balance. Let us explain how Acupuncture works. In TCM, good health is the result of a harmonious balance between Yin and Yang in the life energy called Qi (pronounced “chi”).

An imbalance in these energies causes various illnesses. The degree of imbalance can be assessed through pulse reading. Acupuncture can then be applied to restore balance to the Yin and Yang and improve blood circulation to the specific areas of the body by inserting needles in specific acupoints along the body’s meridian line.

Types of Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a versatile treatment in Malaysia where different types can provide various benefits.

TCM health management is built on the principle of regulating Qi to build the body's vital energy, which flows along specific channels or meridians. For those seeking holistic health solutions, Dr Goh TCM Qi Regulating Acupuncture helps restore balance to the body’s Qi energy and manage Hormonal Imbalance, that is often the root cause of Weight Gain, Insomnia, Anxiety and Depression, and Critical Illnesses such as Cardiovascular Disease, Stroke, Hypertension, Diabetes, and Respiratory Related Disease.

Patients with High Cholesterol Related Conditions, Insomnia and Carpel Tunnel can also benefit from Qi Regulating Acupuncture. Qi Regulating Acupuncture benefits overall health by restoring balance to the body’s Qi.

Muscle tightness and poor body posture often leads to an imbalance in our body’s structural alignment and may cause chronic joint and muscle pain as well as spine injuries if left untreated. Alignment Acupuncture stimulates specific points on the body to help correct body alignment, abnormal movement patterns, muscle imbalance, and postural distortions. For those seeking Alignment Acupuncture in Kuala Lumpur, our treatment practitioner will be happy to assist you.

Scalp Acupuncture is a micro-system acupuncture technique which stimulates the acupoints or areas on the scalp to treat Brain Related Diseases, Neurological and Psychological conditions. It can also help with Headaches, Chronic Pain related to the brain and may also be beneficial to stroke patients. This Acupuncture treatment works through the stimulation of reflex areas within the scalp that can help to regulate functional activities of the brain and body.

The key foundation of TCM is based on maintaining the body in a ‘balanced state' of Yin and Yang. Critical illness occurs when a major state of imbalance or disruption arises, and the use of acupuncture may help in correcting these imbalances. Acupuncture has been known to be an effective non-invasive treatment method to manage critical illnesses such as Stroke, Cardiovascular Diseases, Cancer and Diabetes and can be combined with other forms of treatments for a more holistic approach to health management.
