Acupuncture Defined

A traditional Chinese method of pain relief in which a medically qualified acupuncturist places needles in certain sites. Researchers believe that the needles stimulate deep sensory nerves that tell the brain to release natural painkillers (endorphins). Acupressure is similar to acupuncture, but pressure is applied to the acupuncture sites instead of using needles.

This definition is in context to Female Health. See more contextual defintions for Acupuncture.
