In November 1997, after careful review, the

National Institute of Health gave their endorsement to acupuncture. They stated, "There is sufficient evidence of acupuncture's value to expand its use into

conventional medicine and to encourage

further studies of its physiology and clinical value."

Today, in it's ever growing popularity, Acupuncture is making a name for itself as an effective alternative to invasive medical techniques. The medical world is also seeing a rise in their patients desire to integrate their health care.

The earliest Chinese medical text describing the use of acupuncture known to date is the Huang di Neijing, or the Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine. It was compiled around 305–204 B.C. There has also been evidence, such as pictographs found on the walls of caves that depict the use of acupuncture and moxabustion that date back to the Shang Dynasty (1600-1100 BCE). The PRC, (Peoples Republic of China) standardized Chinese medicine so that it was no longer looked at as a rural folk medicine and would become of more popular interest in western civilizations.
