A. It is natural and powerful with no side effects. Acupuncture “awakes” the body’s intelligence and facilitates the body’s self-repairing and self-healing mechanism. Acupuncture sends signals to the body through special channels called meridians, which connect the Acupoints on the skin to the internal organs and nerve system. It trigs the series of specific responses on the cellular and biochemical level to start the healing process. Not only does acupuncture have no side effect, it can also be as powerful as chemical drugs. For example, acupuncture anesthesia was used in surgeries for patients who are allergic to the chemical drugs. Previous researches have shown  that under acupuncture anesthesia, the central nerve system can produce more naturally occurred endorphin, which is several times higher than the chemical morphine.
