  that good health results from a harmonious
  balance of complementary extremes yin and yang-
  also known as qi, that is pronounced chi.
• Health conditions and illnesses is said to occur
  as a result of imbalances of this life forces.

  specific points with the appropriate combinations

  points or meridians exist, and also it is hard to
  actually prove they do or do not, there are a
  number of studies that suggest that acupuncture
  does work for certain conditions.

• They suggest acupuncture points to be points
  where the nerves, connective tissues and muscles
  can be stimulated using acupuncture.
• This form of stimulation with acupuncture
  techniques increases blood flow, and at the same
  time it triggers the activities of a persons
  natural pain-killers.

• Pertaining to the invasive nature in which
  acupuncture is used, it remains to be a difficult
  task to set-up investigations on it using the
  proper scientific controls.
• When it comes to clinical studies, the control
  group need to undergo placebo, or sham
  treatments, so as to compare results with the
  genuine acupuncture.
• While some studies suggest that acupuncture
  offers results similar to that of placebo, while
  many other indicate that acupuncture offers some
  real benefits to the patients.
• The uses of acupuncture, according to
  the naturopathic physician Las Vegas, is
  wide-ranging.
