Unfortunately, when acupuncture is mentioned in our country, the first thing that comes to mind is weight management. In this article, we will briefly focus on the issues that are thought to be true about acupuncture in our society, but are actually completely wrong in terms of acupuncture science.
1 -Earrings are worn in acupuncture (INCORRECT):
The correct one is; What is meant by the practice called earring, as it is popularly known, is permanent ear pin; This practice has not been applied for about ten years. In scientific studies, it has been determined that permanent needles placed in the ear completely destroy the receptors at acupuncture points, and therefore, the stimulation from the receptors cannot be initiated at the desired level. The practice has been abandoned. Permanent needle application has not been performed in our clinic for about ten years.
2- In acupuncture treatment, seeds are placed in the ear (FALSE):
The correct one is; There has never been a seed application in the field of acupuncture and it has not even been brought to the agenda. .It is completely fabricated and nonsense that has no scientific value. Unfortunately, we have colleagues in our country who apply seeds, and I was very sad when I learned this.
3-Acupuncture is applied once a week or once every two weeks (FALSE ):
The right thing to do is; in the treatment of any disease (which includes weight management!..), acupuncture once a week or It is not applied every two weeks. The frequency of application in the treatment is at least 2 or 3 times a week. The treatment must be applied at this frequency in order to secrete the body's original drugs and to transmit the secreted drugs to the diseased organs or tissues and create clinical effects.
4-Acupuncture is effective in weight and smoking cessation treatment (MISSING INFORMATION):
The truth is; acupuncture is very effective in hundreds of diseases that drugs cannot currently treat, apart from these two important diseases, that is, weight and smoking cessation treatments. You can find a more comprehensive list of these diseases in the "OUR TREATMENTS" section of our website (Note: The diseases we list in this section are only a part of the list published by the World Health Organization). ; Common diseases in our country are written). It is successfully applied in many diseases such as migraines, muscle tension headaches, asthma, lumbar and cervical disc herniations, allergic diseases, depression, anxiety disorders, panic attacks, bed urination in children at night, sleep disorders, pregnancy nausea and vomiting, constipation, joint calcification, etc. .In fact, in vitro fertilization treatment and infertility have been added to this list in recent years.
Giving the science of acupuncture the value it deserves means giving the necessary value to patients. Using the original medicines that God placed within us when He created us; It will offer great savings opportunities to both our own economy and the country's economy in the long term. Most importantly, acupuncture treatment will not cause any harm to our body, as it is completely side-effect-free.
