To begin with, Acupuncture is not especially painful. The needles used
in Acupuncture are very thin, very sharp and they are inserted quickly.
I would compare the needle insertion sensation with the feeling of
having a single eyebrow or earlobe hair plucked. Those who have stray
hairs will understand this. |

Traditional Chinese Medicine |

Traditional Chinese Medicine is a comprehensive system of health care dating back to the stone ages. While ancient, this system is at the same time modern, having undergone extensive modern research and development by the mainland Chinese government since World War II.
According to Dr. Edwin Yang Zong, this extensive modern research and development by the Chinese government came about in an interesting way. During a wilderness military campaign the man who would become "Chairman Mao" was suffering from Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, often abbreviated to the acronym "ALS."
ALS, commonly called Lou Gehrig's disease, is a progressive neuromuscular condition characterized by weakness, muscle wasting, fasciculations (small, bundled clusters of nerve or muscle tissue) and increased reflexes. This disease generally kills its victim within five years, less than that in the wilderness without "modern" care.
Recovery is nearly unheard of even today, especially unheard of some sixty-five years ago. But Mao Zedong, treated with ancient herbal medicine and even more ancient acupuncture, not only lived, but lived an active life of cutting edge controversy well into his old age.

Afraid of Needles? I can still help you!
Traditional Chinese Medicine herbal pills are convenient and pleasant
to take. I keep these pills for nearly every condition, the average price
of these pills is only $16 per bottle. You don't even have to ever see a needle if you choose not to. |
