Finding A Good Acupuncturist The Easy Way

By Lenny Bernofski


Finding a good acupuncturist need not be difficult because many acupuncturists advertise in the yellow pages. Many acupuncturists are listed on line for those who are more comfortable doing an internet search as opposed to using a telephone book. Acupuncture has been practiced in Asia for centuries but is relatively new to the West.

Acupuncture involves the insertion of thin needles into the human body which are supposed to help improve circulation and promote total body wellness. Many believe that acupuncture helps to improve the body's capacity to fight disease and illness by improving the immune system. Acupuncturists believe that carefully placed needles can help bring balance to the immune system.

Acupuncture is thought to have a positive effect on the immune system and thought to stimulate hormones and gastric secretions. Some believe that acupuncture can help lower blood pressure and stimulate red and white blood cell production. Many believe that the human body operates on electrical impulses which can be positively manipulated with carefully placed needles.

Some believe that the needles, properly positioned, can tap into the electromagnetic fields and produce a positive change in the electric flow. Manipulation of the electromagnetic field can lead, some believe, to relief from disease and illness. Acupuncture therapy is categorized as alternative medicine.

Acupuncture is an alternative to traditional Western treatments which counts heavily on prescription medications. Pain killers can produce unwanted side effects in patients and in some cases dependency. Some people become dependent on pain medications which can lead to serious withdrawal issues.

When searching for the right acupuncturist ask the doctor about his background and how long he has been in practice. Ask him if acupuncture is his primary expertise and what maladies he addresses. Finding a good acupuncturist need not be hard if one invests enough time and asks the right questions.
