The Foundation of Medicine- //Traditional Chinese Acupuncture and Herbal Remedies//



As you can see this accupuncturist is sticking needles into one of the meridians. This refers to the Qi or energy flow channel in the body. When your body is well the Qi is flowing well and none of the meridians aren't blocked. People use acupuncture to unblock the meridians that are blocked which cause the pain. Once the needles are placed into the meridian the Qi is restored and allows it to flow freely. Accupuncture is an effective medicinal treatment for all types of pain.



This is this the chart refers to the specific points in which the Qi's meridians can be easily reached and unblocked. The meridians then corispond to the body part in which the chart refers to. This is manly a map of the acupoints on the body.



This image refers to the other main aspect of my essay which are herbal remedies. They were specifically used to cure an individual. This means they used individualization when treating the patient because they thought the medicine would a more personal treatment and could more effective to the problem being addressed. The remedies were not only mixed from plants, but could also be mixed with animal parts. Overall, traditional Chinese herbal remedies were truely effective when used correctly according to a well trained doctor in that art.
