About Acupuncture:
Acupuncture is a method of encouraging the body to promote natural self-healing process. This practice is several thousand years old and is part of Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM) and is carried out by inserting needles and applying heat or electrical stimulation at very specific body locations know as acupuncture points, or acupoints.
According to TCM, the Chinese term chi synonym to life force or vital energy, is considered as energy channels that flow in regular patterns through the body and over its surface. These energy pathways in the body are known as meridians. When the flow of chi through the meridians is blocked or when there is imbalance between the two types of chi (yin and yang), health deviates from pink giving way for the illness to supersede. The meridians can be influenced by needling the acupuncture points; the acupuncture needles unblock the obstructions, reestablish the regular flow and restore the balance of chi through the meridians, thus giving back wealth to health.
Types of Acupunture:
In addition to needling acupuncture points, acupuncture treatment may include other techniques such as: TCM based acupuncture: This type of acupuncture involves the burning of Chinese medicinal herbs that are used along with the acupuncture treatment to aid in the strengthening of body.

This technique resolves myriad of problems right from common cold to respiratory problems.
Moxibustion:
