Fun Fact: Did you know that Acupuncture isnt ancient OR Chinese? It originally started in Greece, and was just the act of needling where you stab painful parts of the body for blood-letting. The word qi (sometimes translated as chi) was first used to describe the vapor coming off of food. Years later, people just made the whole life essence and meridians thing up, and the pressure points described in acupunctures process have a direct link to medieval astrology and vitalism. Also, it s a load of bunk. When studied using a double-blinded and controlled method, it was shown that people cant tell the difference between acupuncture stabbing needles into them and just lightly tapping their backs with toothpicks, and they both relieved pain and stress equally as well with the subjects they tested on. Acupuncture has more holes in it than the victims who are swindled into it. You want pain relief? See a physical therapist and/or your doctor.
