Introduction Acupuncture

Acupuncture comes from the Latin word which means acus needle and pungere intend bill ..Acupuncture is similar to medical technique that uses needle puncture needle-fine point on the body known as the 'acupunture point'.

Acupuncture treatment can be said has been used by various communities such as the ancient civilization of the early people Bunti Africa, the Arab Tigris, ancient Egypt, India and China. However, medical experts gave their homage to China. This is because akupuntur this practice has long been practiced by Chinese rakyar which since 4000 years ago and forwarded that day.

History also proves there bahawabangsa China is the first nation in the world record in the history of medical akupuntur. This is evident when the emperor of China has written the book in full to ask 'IT Huang The Yellow Emperor Canon of Medicine' that be in the year 2000 BC. The book is translated in savings of an author in Beijing, China.

Features - characteristics Akupuntur

Akupuntur treatment differed little in the way of treatment of people with ancient China Treat the present time. First, the use of ancient China

stone - a sharp stone, wood and bamboo as a basis for treatment and pressing on the puncture - a certain portion. But now, the tool - this basic equipment is replaced with a more modern way, namely the use of jaurm - a fine needle has been sterilized or disucihamakan. Needle - this is the needle of various materials such as metal, silver needle syringe or silver, copper or copper needles, syringes and gold.

Syringe needle termahal gold is among the needle - fine needle. This needle can be trusted to energy 'Qi' 100 times than the double silver needle. Qi energy is the energy that moves us to find. If the energy flux is disrupted, then our body will feel sick.

In the needle-fine needle is, which is already available magnetic power over to the needle. This allows us feel like pulse - throbbing, numb, heavy and swelling when the needle - the needle being at a point in the typical body. Sense that we naturally this is known as' Deqi, 'and he spent the flow of electricity through what is called as kolestrol, channels, or meridian. In this case, all sense of pain or can be issued through the power of Qi and so provide adequate relief and cure disease.

Akupuntur medical practitioners that there are 365 Magnetic and Acupuncture is the main and more than 1,000 Magnetic and Acupuncture extraordinary in the human body. Magnetic and Acupuncture extraordinary things existed when the disease on the body's organs will realize the pain and swelling in places far from our organs. For example, pain on Diaphragm can cause pain at the end of the shoulder ..

The akupuntur also mengelaskan part of Magnetic and Acupuncture to 12 in which the main collection point - a point through this combined Meridian. Meridian, which have 12 main meridian circle oversee sex, lung, colon, stomach, limfa, heart, small intestine, Pundi urine, kidneys, Pundi hempedu, and the triple warmer heart. In addition, the number of Magnetic and Acupuncture on the meridian is different. For example, the heart meridian has nine points when urinating Pundi meridian has 67 points.

A leading researcher in pain, namely Dr. Ronald Melzack stated that the pressure on the point - a point pattern is associated with pain and excitement that something short but berkeamatan high point on it through fine needle can relieve pain. In addition, scientific research has been carried on akupuntur in the United States shows that the brain 'endorfin' that can relieve pain in a natural akupuntur during treatment. In most countries such as the United States, United Kingdom, and Hong Kong where there are many types of Heroin biller drugs, how they use akupuntur treatment because it can increase the rate of endorfin in the body. This is because most drugs have a characteristic rate endorfin lower in the liquid spina them.

In 1965, Ronald and Patrick Wall Malzack which investigators recommend that pain has a theory about the existence of similar 'door' in every phase of nerve Allows. The door is always closed and not justify pain stimulus to the brain. In addition, the door in the nerve Allows it be by two stimulus said. Some stimulus is attempting close the doors and some other stimulus also seeks to open doors. However, the advantages to the more partisan stimulus to close the door and this causes the pain does not exist dirasai despite provocation. However, the treatment may act through akupuntur to open and close the door in the nerve Allows effectively.



Form - Form of Modern Akupuntur

Akupuntur in this modern day, there are a variety of techniques practiced by experts akupuntur or akupuntur practitioners. Altogether there are more than 11 forms of modern akupuntur. There is a classic akupuntur where kebiasaanya use needles as fine-needle treatment. There are also electrically akupuntur in which he uses low-voltage electrical stimulator that does not endanger the patients and akupuntur electronic equipment that uses a small electronic equipment.

In addition, the use of blood akupuntur bruise for bruise ready menggeluarkan blood from the body's dirty. There is also a akupuntur bruise for bruise ready to use menyedut wind out of our body. Akupuntur mosibusi is akupuntur the heat on certain points. When akupuntur series, which includes the release of pressure, massage (massage) and reiki. In addition, there are also akupuntur Homeopathic, akupuntur eyes, head, ear, and so forth.

Treatment Akupuntur

Akupuntur said one of the methods of treatment Hipnosis and effective as medicines in the treatment of the sick or Anestetik. Patients may also be aware of the situation when they receive treatment akupuntur. For example, patients can tell the practitioners akupuntur if the needle is not being on Magnetic and Acupuncture. Akupuntur treatment also can be used in caring for someone affected by jet flash. This is proven when treatment has been to restore the skin as usual.

Magnetic and Acupuncture has the nature of electricity is extraordinary. Dots is able to drain off the flow of electricity on the skin and in the area near or associated. However, what is remarkable is the Magnetic and Acupuncture changed to the emotional patients. If the medical review by way of China, he is associated with energy and Qi Yin and the concept. The concept of Yin and the purpose of bringing the organ in the body known as the Yin and also known as the organ in the body that are less good. Yin and the balance in determining the stability of the health agency.

Chinese Medicine also linking weather relationship with 5 elements, namely wood, water, fire, metal and earth, with health and disease. When the organ in the body associated with 5 elements and the Yin and the. For example, liver associated with wood, the heart of the fire, limfa with the earth. However, most of the main methods of diagnosis is akupuntur pulse. This method is important because it can identify the disease that had dihidapi. This facilitates the practitioners - practitioners akupuntur easy to identify with background concerning medical patients. In addition, practitioners of traditional akupuntur can also measure the level of energy in the meridian with the radial artery pulse check on the wrist. Phase energy in the meridian can be reached so that 14 species carotid arteries in both wrists. However, experts think akupuntur pulse 5 or 6 who can return only for medical purpose. In addition, practitioners of traditional akupuntur will also examine the tongue, color, skin tissue, hair tissue, movements and body position, breathing and the sound of a voice in treatment akupuntur. In addition, lifestyle, diet, exercise sufficient sleep, fobia, and the reaction against the disease taken about succession. This process is known as' Mempalpat 'which diagnose Qia conduction disturbances and attacks against the disease in the organ.

Treatment of Akupuntur

The akupuntur holds that only the skills practiced in akupuntur can achieve the desired treatment which want to know where to stimulate the skin. Although there are many ways to stimulate the skin, such as moxibustion, massage, electrical, vibration, mechanical, heat, and magnetic hayunan in Practice good widely, but the method is the best method provocation needle.

Akupuntur needle that consists of silver needle aloi consist of silver and all the needle is diversified iron rust berkalis addition to ensure the position of the needle on Magnetic and Acupuncture, the effectiveness of treatment akupuntur depend on the number of needle akupuntur used, the depth of the skin tunnel, a period of the needle being on Magnetic and Acupuncture and the number of treatment that is run.

When the Magnetic and Acupuncture were related, akupuntur will dicucuk needle on the skin and left some patients, namely from several long time, to several minutes. Some practitioners akupuntur will use to rotate counterclockwise with the end of the finger which aims to stimulate Magnetic and Acupuncture. In addition, they will also merangsangkan Magnetic and Acupuncture needles with the use of electricity.

Patients will not feel pain when treatment akupuntur run. This is because the needle used is very sharp and only a few millimeters only inserted into the skin of the patients. For patients who face disease, which chronicles a little run as a treatment once or twice a week. Conversely, a treatment that is more often given for the disease, which is rather critical. Some patients require four or five akupuntur treatment before making any changes in himself as relaxed feel, fresh, and capable of running the day-to-day activities.

The disease Diubati By Akupuntur

Akupuntur through treatment has many advantages because it can cure many diseases. The World Health Agency (WHO) has outlined several diseases that can be treated with either method through akupuntur. This treatment method can treat the interference in the respiratory system, namely Sinusitis, catarrh, and tonsilitis. Whereas for digestive disturbances such as gastrik, sembilit, sediment and bottom-bowel paralysis. In addition, he also treated as interference in the eye sore eyes and early retinismyopia interference and mouth such as toothache, gum and halkum.

In addition, the use of methods of treatment akupuntur also effective in the disease process which membabit disfungsi physiology headaches, lung, the situation is quite precarious rheumatism, menstrual problems, digestive problems and nerve problems. For example, in Britian the doctor has been treated akupuntur using methods which patients and migraine headaches. Treatment was considered successful in there when 80% of the patients were cured completely.

In addition, some doctor who has been witnessing use surgical methods akupuntur also recognize that in China medical treatment akupuntur open only on the subject disfungsi the physiology but also on the type of disease that requires treatment such as caesarean surgery, tumors, dental surgery and lung patients . All the patients are aware of the situation and did not receive any medicines anestetik. Only the needle akupuntur the dirangsang with electricity in the skin of the patients enter.

Change the Treatment Akupuntur against it.

Although the methods of treatment akupuntur give a good impression to the patients, but there are still issues that are caused due to doubt them. Various issues arising from the effects puncture needle, needle comparison, and so forth.

In fact, the treatment akupuntur get testimony from the WHO. Needle puncture does not bring any pain. This is evident when the needle-needle used is too smooth dicucuk and he is only as deep as 0.5 cm to 1 cm only. Needle puncture just like all the bite the first time.

In addition, modern needle akupuntur not bring danger because he is in the ready after my sterilized and always clean and safe to use.

In addition, people need not doubt about jangkitan AIDS through treatment akupuntur. This is because there has been no history that would AIDS through needle akupuntur. AIDS would only through a needle that is not clean, especially that used by the biller drugs.

Conclusion.

Generally, treatment akupuntur still less welcome, although the effectiveness of this method has been proven through several studies that have been run. China, for example, has more than 500,000 members akupuntur therapy when Japan also has more than 30, 000 practitioners akupuntur. Meanwhile, there are also a handful of practitioners akupuntur Germany and Peranchis that this method in practice full time. This method is getting more developed in line with the rapid development of technology in modern medical. This is because the actual treatment akupuntur able mengubati various diseases that can not be treated with modern methods. Methods tend to use more modern way of surgery and drugs as a way penyelasaian to treat the disease.









Acupuncture can not only improve the vitality, to help the process of healing the disease, but can also help the success of weight-loss program you.

Obesity and diseases

Obesity or obesity is a physiological condition where excess fat stored in the body in the network. Someone said to obesity if the weight exceeds 10% of ideal body weight. Obesity is a problem since the days of yore. This situation is one of the metabolic aberration longest recorded in history as seen on a clay sculpture that comes from the days of not less than 22,000 years BC; the statue depicting a woman who obes half old. Obesity and still always recorded throughout history, since the days of ancient Greece and Egypt, even until even now is still a problem, especially in terms of treatment.

Obesity raises the various impacts both in terms of psychosocial and medical problems. Obeis people who have many difficulties in making physical activity a day-to-day and the person who issued it obeis day-to-day costs for food and clothing and a large lebh and can also have problems in the relationship of husband and wife on a small child often found themselves the issue of identification. From the point of medical education, obesity is often to the hospital. People with obesity also have the life expectancy is lower than the normal weight population. Data New York Metropolitan Life Insurance shows that in the age group 40 - 69 years old found that obeis death rate 42% higher than the average male and 36% higher than average on women. For the sufferer obeis can also arise own inferiority complex, feeling oppressed, and the desperation and the desire to become more of the slim, with a visible passion for a variety of diet programs.

Is it enough diet?

Many problems arise when people with obesity rely on diet alone, such as: people have tried various diet and limit the range of Feed the food, people will feel that obesity is very small and difficult to reduce the already small. People are sometimes tortured with more than dietnya program kegemukkannya own problems. Go consult with the family doctor sometimes it does not help. One of the big research shows that more than half of a diet that is said to spend time with visiting doctor suggestion to ask its agencies. Other research shows that almost a third of family doctors have their own problems excess weight.

Supplements and medication management bermanfatkah make your body?

Other business that many are done with the use of various food supplements claimed to reduce body weight. I will not discuss let alone recommend medicines chemical that said effective weight loss but the side effects that harm your body. How treatment is often without real results, even drugs are often given to provide side effects such as insomnia, headaches, nervous easily, dry mouth, and sometimes arise reaction dependence.

About the food supplements that can be said to lose weight, nor necessarily safe. High-fiber diet with lots eating fresh vegetables and fruit is recommended for the health body and can help reduce fat serapan from the alimentary tract, but the use of supplements high in fiber packaging may have influence the other. In the leading medical journal The Lancet with the title of high fiber diet can damage your health? also discussed the use of high-fiber supplements, which can lead to excess proliferation of cells in the large intestine and the use of herbal medicine management agencies in some cases reported to give effect to the toxic kidney. Then sealami any material that you consume can also lead to reactions that are not natural (this may be a natural product, but can make unnatural reaction). Moreover, when the material is used in a long time and in large doses. Be careful with side effects.

Overcome obesity with Acupuncture

Use of Acupuncture as an alternative to weight reduction program has proven highly effective and without side effects. This method has been arranged and terumuskan since around 3000 years BC. The doctors akupuntur experts who have conducted various research, to the conclusion that akupuntur in the ear to provide a good effect. From the many Magnetic and Acupuncture ear used, the hungry (T 18) is the most effective. The type of ear syringe (needle press) direkat with plaster. People are holding the needle for 2-3 minutes when hungry, half hour before meals three times a day. Follow-up is done once a week for the subjective evaluation of the response in terms of reduction of hunger and cold response from the decrease in body weight. Reaction as a result of provocation in this area is more resistant hungry. The emphasis needle ear stimulate shaggy auricularis Nervus Vagus, through Nervus Vagus channeled to the branches of the memepengaruhi system or gastrointestinal part of the digestive system. Muscle contraction is so keadan bound to be calm, so that reduced hunger and hunger also reduced. Research on 802 cases of obesity, which dealt with akupuntur, 594 cases, the results provide the reduced weight. The success of therapy achieved after 8 weeks with a marked decrease in the weight of 7-10 kg

Symptoms generally experienced the most severe in the second or third day. Babies can be sick for 7-10 days and the cough may continue until 2-4 weeks.

Inspection Support

Bronkiolitis generally can be identified from symptoms and a characteristic signature that examination as chest X-ray or nasopharyngeal aspiration (of fluid from the cavity behind the nose) is not done routinely.

Handling bronkiolitis is:

* Always try not to smoke at home or around your baby, especially if the baby has a channel napas aberration or the heart, immune system low, or premature birth.

cough

Children can experience a 6-12 Respiratory infection (acute infection of breath) in a year, usually accompanied by a cough. In most children, coughing will stop by itself in 1-3 weeks, although it can sometimes take longer. In general, if a child experienced coughing every day for more than 3 weeks, several possible causes other than the acute infection of breath should be considered:

* Children may have a difference in the channel breath, eg: tracheo-esophageal fistula (the channel between the trakea / channel breath and throat / channel food).

Diagnosis

To determine the causes coughing, some important things to note. The first course should be distinguished whether cough is experienced continuously or relapse once again after recovery. Commencement cough also be important, for example, a cough that is suddenly without other symptoms may signal the existence of a foreign object in the channel napas. The type and pattern of coughing can also provide guidance in determining the cause of cough. For example, coughing experienced in the attacks that are not controlled (paroxysmal) may be caused by pertussis, Chlamydia, or a foreign object. Cough, which disappeared during sleep indicates that the cough can be experienced only because of habit (habit cough). Other symptoms that accompany the cough is also very helpful in this effort because the disease has several symptoms that typically enough, for example: Sinusitis, chronic rinitis, atopi, or asthma. In addition, the display of cigarette smoke is also an important factor in children with complaints of cough.
On physical examination, no sign of lack of oxygen (hipoksia) that must be examined chronic progress, for example, failed to grow and clubbing (hipoksia due to chronic conditions in which the boundary with the skin of the finger nails become even if dilamati side of the more visible claws and width). In addition, of course, other signs such as fever, napas fast, use, and sounds that are not symmetrical breath also must be considered.
Checking further examination, such as laboratory or X-ray is only needed in certain cases.
