Basic Principles of Acupuncture, Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese practice that can be traced back for at least 2,500 years. The general theory of acupuncture is that specific patterns of energy flow through the body and are essential for health. The Chinese call this energy Qi, and it is the balancing of Qi that promotes health. Acupuncture is most commonly known as small, sterile needles inserted into specific locations in the skin. Modern acupuncture also uses a variety of other treatment modalities, including acupressure, electro-acupuncture, herbs, laser, nutrition counseling, magnets, cupping, and moxibustion.
