Acupuncture--Its Time Has Come
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page essay that argues that acupuncture should be used more extensively and preferred over drug therapy. The traditional stance of Western culture and Western medicine is to regard ancient Chinese medicine, with its herbal remedies and needles, as superstition. However, contemporary medical practitioners are beginning to realize that this attitude is not only ethnocentric, it is simply wrong. Western pharmacologically based medicine can do wonderful things, but it can also cause extremely adverse drug reactions. On the other hand, there is a growing body of empirical research that verifies that alternative medicine, with techniques such as acupuncture, offer safe, effective means for bypassing the dangers entailed in extensive pharmacology.
