Acupuncture, a practice originating in China over 5,000 years ago,
|
|
diverges from Western paradigms with its emphasis on holistic patterns
|
|
and relationships. The French Jesuits introduced acupuncture to Europe
|
|
in the 17th Century, but its reception was lukewarm due to the clash
|
|
between Eastern and Western worldviews. The effectiveness of acupuncture
|
|
was long backed by anecdotal evidence until 1976 when controlled
|
|
experiments started gaining ground. Today, at least 17 lines of evidence
|
|
underscore its impact.

Key developments include acupuncture's introduction to Europe by French
|
|
Jesuits in the 17th Century, where it struggled due to paradigm
|
|
differences. Its anecdotal effectiveness gave way to scientific scrutiny
|
|
around 1976, leading to numerous controlled experiments that affirmed
|
|
its pain-relieving effects. Acupuncture's basis lies in endorphin
|
|
release, with three main endorphin-releasing sites being identified.

|
Evidence supporting acupuncture includes experiments with endorphin
|
|
blockers, genetic factors, and physiological pathways. Acupuncture's
|
|
efficacy stands at approximately 70-80%, with notable outcomes in pain
|
|
relief, addiction treatment, gastrointestinal disorders, and more.
|
|
Across the world, its integration into modern medical practices gained
|
|
traction over time, with many physicians incorporating it into their
|
|
treatments.
