Acupunture
Acupunture And Other ‘ACU’ Techniques. Practitioners believe a type of body energy (“chi” or “qi”) flows along channels called meridians. Therapists therefore work on certain points of the body to increase,release or calm the flow. They use needles (acupuntures); fingers (acupressure); electric current (electro-acupunture); a laser beam or magnet; coloured light (colour acupuncture) or a burning herb (moxibustion). Auriculo-therapy means that only the ear is worked on. Acu technique may help conditions such as back pain, nausea, fibromyalgia and migrane.
