Acupuncture, Moxibustion & Blood Circulation with Herbal Compress

The Chinese word "針灸" actually represent two types of medical treatment "Needle Acupuncture" and "Moxibustion and Fire Cupping". Most people know the needle acupuncture since it is  being used for acute disease treatment while the later one is for chronic illness disease.

However, Chinese believe that our body is the little Universe, it has the eco system and seasonal effects. How blood stream (Chi) go from one end to the other point every two hours change differently. Chinese learned this phenomenon through one generation to another over 3,000 years, we may have different approaches such as using needle or finger to stimulate the acupoints called "Acupuncture".

Traditional Chinese Medicine Acupuncture identifies 12 "regular" and 8 "extraordinary" meridians; commonly call the Twelve Vessels". There's also a number of less customary channels branching off from the "regular" meridians.
