THEORY OF ACUPUNCTURE
The theory of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine itself comes from Taoism. Taoism gives a picture of human life in a holistic view where the geographical, climatic, and seasonal changes and conditions have the ability to affect each person differently depending on a person's ability to adapt to such changes and conditions. Taoism describes how our way of life and our environment affect our health. It involves the balance of Yin and Yang, and Qi and Blood. These are the four basic elements within the body which play an important role in maintaining balance so that the body is not susceptible to these forces which may create an imbalance or disease condition.
