Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese art of treatment, in which needles are in-
serted into precisely defined areas of the body, the so-called acupuncture points.
These are located along lines of the body called meridians.
By means of these acupuncture points, energetic disorders in the organism are
equalized, and specific bodily organs or zones can be stimulated, thereby also
stimulating their function and vitality. This stimulation can also be achieved
by pressure (acupressure) or harmless electrical impulses such as with the
MEDISANA ACS/ACP at the respective acupuncture points.
Acupuncture is applied especially in the case of pain syndromes and many types
of dysfunctions.
