Acupunture is being considered as the most appropriate alternative
to medical treatment. In fact it has become so popular that special
schools and colleges have been incepted in order to spread
acupuncture as a complete body treatment alternative. Within the
scope of acupunture there are different kinds of therapies one can
avail
(A) Muscular therapy
This form of therapy is a combination of oriental Chinese medicine
coupled with western understanding of physiology. It uses the
science of acupuncture which believes all diseases to occur because
of an imbalance between the positive and negative forces of the
body. With the help of some muscular maneuvering this form of
acupunture is effective for muscular tension, sore muscles and torn
ligaments etc.
(B) Self Regulation Therapy
As the name suggests this therapy expects the patient to regulate
his own condition and provide self treatment for his disease. With
devices such as the electric acupuncture this has become an easy to
use tool. These devices come with easy to use guides and manuals
teaching the patient on how to perform acupunture on him self. This
form of acupuncture is non invasive.
(C) Massage Therapy
More and more massage parlors are now offering massage therapy as a
form of acupunture. The most common form of acupuncture found in
massage parlors is acupressure. This technique uses the same
principles as acupunture the only difference is that instead of
needles the masseuse uses his fingers to trigger the desired effect.
For many people this has become a good way to relax and get
treatment at the same time.
