Easy cure through Acupuncture
What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese healing science more than 5000 years old.
In our body runs the Universal life Energy called ‘Chi’ in Chinese.
This energy comprises the 5 basic elements that are earth, water, fire, wood
and air. A proper balance of these five elements implies good energy flow and
sound health. Any imbalance in these five elements sets the stage for disease
to take root in the body. If the imbalance is allowed to prevail for long in a
particular area of the body, it turns into disease at the physical, mental or
emotional levels. When the disease itself gets prolonged, it becomes chronic or
persistent. This applies to any disease ranging from a simple headache to
cancer. Acupuncture is the science of healing through which this energy flow is
balanced to restore good health.
How it works:
There are 14 main meridians through which the Universal Life Energy flows in
the body. Each meridian is associated with a particular vital organ.
Obstruction, insufficient flow or interruption in this energy flow causes
disease to the associated organs. This energy deficiency is detected through
Pulse Diagnosis. Through this, the imbalance of the 5 elements constituting
this energy is accurately studied with respect to the associated 12 vital
organs (as listed below).
These energy meridians that connect the vital organs come to the surface near
the skin as acupuncture (or acu) points. By treating these acu
points, the energy flow in the associated meridians is restored and the disease
is cured.

Wood Gall bladder, liver

Treating these acu points is done in any one of the three ways:
Acupuncture
Acupressure
Acutouch
Acupuncture
is the method that employs very fine acupuncture needles to stimulate the acu
points and restore energy flow. There is no sensation of pain felt in this
method.
Acupressure
is the method by which these acu points are treated by just applying
pressure with the fingertips.
Acutouch
is the method by which these acu points are stimulated by just a
feather touch.
The Nithyananda Acupuncture Healing Sciences Foundation employs
the three methods of acu-healing that are Acupuncture (single needle
therapy), Acupressure and Acutouch, in an effective way
through trained Acupuncture specialists.
As Nithyananda says, ‘Our body is perfectly capable of healing itself.
Even a subtle external stimulus is enough. Energy healing is the most natural
method of stimulating this inner healing mechanism. Acupuncture acts directly
at the energy level and is an effective and proven science of healing.’
In tune with His vision of providing service in the field of energy healing,
this wing of the foundation offers its services at all the Nithyananda
Meditation Academies (NMA) world over. It is also available as mobile healing
service at the meditation programs or satsangs conducted by the
Foundation in various locations.
In addition to acupuncture treatments, advice for an appropriate diet,
effective home remedies for specific ailments, and advice on proper hygiene are
offered here. The core of this service is to increase the system immunity and
achieve the goal of sound health.
Common ailments that have been effectively treated are:
Backaches, Spondolosis, Slipped Disks, Fractures, and Dislocations
