Acupuncture, moxibustion and their origin

The origin of acupuncture and moxibustion  is Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), which was introduced 2600 years ago  size  Geniuses in  ancient China was developed.  The medical theory  and practice in Asia has also spread to other countries (e.g. Taiwan, Japan,  Korea, Vietnam, Tibet, etc.)  spread out  and it has become in every country with its own character of people and culture  developed.

Original instruction,

different healing methods depending on the region,  Problem and goal

​

A feature of this natural healing method is that it is  originally depending on the problem and goal  There were different types of therapy and instruments, but today in modern times only a few types of acupuncture are known and used worldwide.

​

According to the greatest classical work "The Yellow Emperor" (黄帝 内 経 - 素 問 第十二 篇 異 法 方 宜 論), which is read in Asia as a textbook of natural medicine, there were roughly 5  different ways of therapy for  every  Region where there was a different climate, a different landscape, and a different human life in ancient times. It is roughly described as follows: "In the east, near the sea, coastal region, a lot of seafood is eaten, but the high amount of sea salt in the body causes poor blood circulation and swelling, and stone needles are used against it. In the west, mountain region, a lot of meat is eaten, and There are many diseases of the internal organs, but herbal therapy is used for internal absorption. In the north, field region, it is cold, and against cold and to support the yan energy, moxibustion, heat and light are used  burnt herbs, used. In the south, warmer region, the humidity has a bad influence on the meridians (life energy circulation)  and causes a lot of pain, whereas acupuncture is used for better circulation  used. In the middle, fertile region, you can go without much effort  eat many different foods, however  with this one often has a bad circulation of the life force, and Qi-gon is used against it. "    

The different healing methods were all developed and used,  based  on the same natural medicine theory. 

Originally, the healing method (and instruments) was chosen and used in ancient times  depending on the region, problem type and goal of treatment.

It is natural  It is well known that our human life has changed very rapidly and rapidly with the development of technology over the past centuries. Many inventions, e.g. electricity, cars, airplanes, computers, cell phones, etc., have greatly enriched our lives and made them more comfortable, but the big change has brought us not only advantages but also disadvantages. Global climate change and pollution (of water, air and soil), irregular living, food  Regardless of the season and region, excessive eating and drinking, jet lag from rush hour traffic, radioactive rays, electromagnetic waves, new infections, etc. - there are many new stressors in our time, and in fact we are suffering from more and more "modern symptoms and diseases".

Acupuncture and moxibustion are also being used worldwide to combat such problems  used, but unfortunately the success is only sporadic. Many therapists struggle with difficulty in applying the ancient therapy to modern problems unchanged.
