Guest guest Posted April 5, 1999 Report Share Posted April 5, 1999 Hi, I´m from Sweden. Here they use acupuncture in mostly for painrelief. what they say there is that it releases endorphins. My question is, is the mechanism known how acupuncture works on the tissue and molecular level known? Is the mechanism the same for acupressure, when you press the points instead of nails. Hope someone will answer thanks /jake ------------------- Yesbox är en e-posttjänst som inte bara är gratis - du får dessutom bonuspoäng - http://www.yesbox.net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where there is a stagnation of energy, there is pain. We move the energy, the pain goes away.
