Acupuncture is a technique of inserting tiny thread-like needles along the meridian lines of the body.
Acupuncture's complex system of diagnostic corollaries takes into consideration the person as a whole, not just isolated symptoms.
The practice of acupuncture is based on discerning a "pattern of disharmony" and treating accordingly.
Modern acupuncturists may use a number of treatment modalities, physical therapies and equipment such as electrical stimulation devices, herbal medicine, moxibustion (an herbal application of heat), and nutrition, to name a few.
