Acupuncture: the general term for acupuncture. Acupuncture is to pierce a filiform needle into a patient's body according to a certain point, and use acupuncture methods such as twisting and lifting to treat diseases. Moxibustion is to burn the skin with burning moxa sticks at certain acupoints and treat diseases with heat stimulation.
Under normal circumstances, Yin and Yang are in a relatively balanced state in the human body. The therapeutic function of acupuncture is to reconcile yin and yang at first, which is basically achieved through the compatibility of meridians and acupoints and acupuncture techniques.
