How does it work?
针灸产生效果的原理是什么？
Traditional Chinese medicine explains that health is the result of a harmonious balance of the complementary extremes of "yin" and "yang" of the life force known as "qi," pronounced "chi." Illness is said to be the consequence of an imbalance of the forces.
中医认为，健康是阴阳平衡的结果，“阴”和“阳”是生命力，也被称为“极”，生病则是因为生命力不平衡导致的。
Qi is said to flow through meridians, or pathways, in the human body. These meridians and energy flows are accessible through 350 acupuncture points in the body. Inserting needles into these points with appropriate combinations is said to bring the energy flow back into proper balance.
“极”贯穿遍布全身经络，可通过全身的350个针灸穴位调整经络和能量。用合适的组合方式将若干针插入这些穴位，即可将能量调整至平衡状态。
Some experts have used neuroscience to explain acupuncture. Acupuncture points are seen as places where nerves, muscles, and connective tissue can be stimulated. The stimulation increases blood flow, while at the same time triggering the activity of the body's natural painkillers.
有专家用神经系统学解释针灸原理，这些针灸穴位被认为是神经、肌肉和软组织连接处，可通过针灸刺激它们，针灸的刺激可以促进血液流动，同时可以让身体利用自身功能达到止痛效果。
