Alternative
In the Western World we have been putting our faith into the Medical profession whose skills and knowledge goes back around 150-200 years. Some people in the West are starting to “discover” what has been going on in the “East” for thousands of years and are starting to turn to all sorts of Natural healing methods as an alternative to “popping a pill” or “slicing it out”. Now, while it is an interesting subject in itself to debate on the pro’s and con’s of Medicine that is not what we are doing here!
One of the Eastern Ancient Healing methods is Acupuncture and New York Acupuncture have set up a website to promote their business. My first thought on Acupuncture is that it involves someone sticking needles into you and you end up looking like a pincusion! This is a gross generalisation and only partially based in the facts. Yes, Acupuncture does involve inserting needles into the body, but it is done at very specific points - and there is little to no discomfort when receiving a treatment.
Now, the website. The site has a comment on their homepage saying it has recently been re-designed. I had no idea as to what it looked like so I took a peek of how it looked in the past thanks to the waybackmachine. This site has been around for a long, long time and In the past it was not that great! They have done some great improvements to the layout and now the site actually provides some great content as well. They provide a little bit of general information on howAcupuncture can help in the treatment of various conditions. Some of them I had heard about - Acupuncture for Arthritis is one example and others such as an alternative to IVF - Infertility Acupuncture I had not heard about..
Of course, a site like this caon only provide general information and act as a bit of an introduction to how Acupuncture might be able to help you. This is where it really comes back around to what you put your trust in - the 200 year old Western Medicine or many Thousands of years of Eastern knowledge and treatments.
