 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. |
