What is Acupuncture? What are the benefits?

Acupunture originates from China and has been practiced there for thousand of years. Acupuncture involves the insertion of very thin needles through a patients skin as specific points on the body. It is known that acupuncture has some therapeutic benefits, including pain relief and alleviation from nausea caused by chemotherapy. Acupuncture usually involves several weekly or fortnightly treatments and most sessions last about 30 minutes.
Some studies indicate that acupuncture may help in treating low back pain, migraines, post operative dental pain, hypertension, nausea and vomiting.
