Dear Patient, Today is my last Note of 2021, and I thought it would be fun to end the year with a little science talk. The practice of acupuncture is sometimes accused of being “unscientific,” when what people really mean is that it’s difficult to measure. We can’t see qi, acupuncturists disagree about where the points are located, and our diagnostic methods like pulse-taking are highly subjective. But acupuncture and modern science really just use different language to describe the same phenomena.
Thank you for sharing these notes!!!!
