 Acupuncture and herbal medicine
(for people and animals) have been practiced in China for thousands of
years! Since the late 70's, the study and practice of acupuncture has
gained greater understanding and acceptance in the U.S. and abroad. The
American Veterinary Medical Association has called acupuncture an
integral part of veterinary medicine. Additionally, the World Health
Organization and the National Institutes of Health have officially
recognized acupuncture as an effective treatment for many conditions
and diseases. There is overwhelming scientific data supporting the
efficacy of acupuncture. Since 1960, there have been over 3425 articles
published on the efficacy of acupuncture. A recent article in the Wall
Street Journal stated "Acupuncture cuts arthritis pain-- acupuncture
has been found to relieve knee pain and dysfunction caused by
osteoarthritis, according to the largest clinical study of the
treatment to date..." It really works. |
