The Science Behind Acupuncture

Highlights from the attached article (:http://www.examiner.com/holistic-science-spirit-in-national/new-scientific-breakthrough-proves-why-acupuncture-works)  

-insertion of acupuncture needles disrupts neurological pathways
-acupuncture points show lower electrical resistance than the rest of the skin
-the body conducts along the acupuncture channels (meridians)

Ultimately, acupuncture works even if we don't understand it, which is why it is slowly being accepted (and adopted) into conventional medicine, like the acupuncture program at McMaster. (http://www.acupuncture-program.com/)
