Acupuncture does it!

Indeed, the above statement quite rightly sums up the experience of millions of satisfied patients who have undergone acupuncture therapy and are now leading normal lives. After the nightmare of going through medical guesswork, costly pathological tests, in-patient admission charges and post discharge follow up expenses, they still are not back in form after a skeletal injury or an organ disease. For such patients, acupuncture is a boon or a shot in the arm that will help them lead normal lives. It is the best tool to quell co-dependency amongst family members who suffer equally when one person in the family goes through a terrible trauma in terms of injury, accident or addiction.

Paucity of Acupuncture Specialists

·        Yes, that is a harsh reality that we have to face. All over the world, there is a massive shortage of acupuncture specialists and the demand outstrips supply. With more and more people embracing alternative therapies, acupuncture is here to stay and is going to become even more popular.

·        Already people are withdrawing from allopathic medicines and pharmaceutical companies have been forced to increase prices and governments have retailed through drug price regulation acts for most common medications.

·        The net result is that pharma companies are now playing the volume game by offering complimentary foreign tours to specialist doctors and turning them into “pill pushers”. 

 Common man has zero knowledge of how his health is being managed

·        Instead of championing the virtues of proper, sleep, exercise, diet and companionship, doctors are now prescribing pills for every ailment. The problem with this approach is that gullible patients obediently follow what is written in the prescription considering the doctor as their guardian angel and fall into a vortex.

·        Medicines beget medicines meaning that the more medicines you ingest, the more the body craves for medication and a situation arises that the natural resilience of the body against diseases goes down. And that opens a Pandora box of ailments as the natural regenerative capacity of the body is impaired and the patient needs higher doses of medicines and the gamut of medicines also increases per day.

·        More reliance on antibiotics develops which leads to higher muscle mass, weight gain, drowsiness, depression, obesity and symptoms like  thyroid , hyper-tension are kick-started owing to drug induced weight gain.

 Acupuncture saves you from all this.

 It is a real saviour when it comes to skeletal, muscular, organ –damage, nervous or respiratory diseases which might have crippled your system.

·        By just pricking needles at the right spots which store a lot of energy that helps in the healing process, acupuncture actually makes healing less complicated.

·        With no medicines to be taken orally or intravenously, typical side-effects like  nausea, vomiting, headache, heart burn, fixed drug reactions can be eliminated, once and for all.  

·        No surgeries, incisions, or even placebos need to be administered and the patient begins to experience relief after the first consultation itself.

His belief in the system increases with each passing day and he recommends it to everyone around him. No wonder acupuncture enjoys such high word-of mouth publicity.  Try it once. You will like it for sure!
