Colorado Acupuncture Physicians
Acupuncture, simply stated is a health science which is used to treat both pain and dysfunction in the body.Acupuncture has its roots deeply planted in China. In fact, authorities agree the science is between 5,000 and 7,000 years old. Its use spread throughout ancient Egypt, the Middle East, the Roman Empire and later into Western Europe as merchants and missionaries to China told of the amazing discoveries the people of the Orient had developed. Acupuncture did not become known on a national level in the US until 1971 when diplomatic relations between China and America were relaxed.At first glimpse, Acupuncture appears strange, as its primary notoriety is the utilization of needles placed in the skin at various locations to relieve pain.Early Chinese physicians discovered there is an energy network traversing just below the surface of the skin which communicates from the exterior to the internal organs and structures over 1,000 "Acupoints" on the body. This energy works in harmony with the body's circulatory, nervous, muscular, digestive, genitourinary and all other systems of the body. 5950 S Willow Dr Ste 310,

His clinic is located at 840 Pearl Street, Boulder, CO 80302 – Call 303 413-9596 for appointments. The first record of Acupuncture is found in the Huang Di Nei Jing (Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine), a 4,700 year old textbook believed to be the oldest medical textbook in the world. This classic documented theories about circulation, pulse and the heart 4,000 years before western medicine began studying them. Acupuncture has been used widely in China ever since, and it spread to Japan through Korea 1,300 years ago. In Japan, acupuncture was further refined to become an independent system of medicine. Acupuncture is the insertion of very fine needles on the body’s surface in order to influence the energetic functioning of the body. Acupuncture is sometimes used in conjunction with electrical stimulation and moxibustion, a process in which heat is produced by burning certain herbs.
