Healing With Acupuncture with Dr. Mark Carney:
Acupuncture & Chronic Fatigue
Hi, I'm Dr. Mark Carney. I'm a naturopathic doctor and an acupuncturist with a family practice in Denver, Colorado called Your Healing Place. People often ask, "What is acupuncture?"
Acupuncture is one part of Chinese medicine. Acupuncture has been around for thousands of years. Acupuncture is based on the concept of Qi and Qi means energy. The Qi is flowing through our body in rivers that are called meridians in Chinese medicine, and these meridians are mapped out all throughout our body. They flow on the top of our head, on the bottom of our feet.
Basically, what acupuncture is doing is inserting needles at different points of these meridians to flip open and closed valves to regulate the flow of the energy, of the Qi. Just like rivers out in nature, if a tree falls down and blocks that river, things that depend on that water that are downstream from that would start to get impaired function because they're not getting the water supply. So things that are downstream from the blockages of Qi in our body also get an impairment in function.
Acupuncture Keeps the Rivers of Energy Open
If the rivers of energy that are flowing to our eyes get impaired flow, then we can get macular degeneration or blurred vision, or if the rivers that flow to our head get impaired, then we can get depression or anxiety, or insomnia. So that's acupuncture.
Let's talk about chronic fatigue syndrome. Fatigue is the number one reason that brings someone to a healthcare professional, and there are hundreds of possible causes of what creates fatigue. There are many different types of fatigue. It's important to rule out the biomedical causes of fatigue. Once those have all been ruled out, then chronic fatigue is often given as a blanket diagnosis.
People often ask, "Can acupuncture increase energy?" The answer is a definitive yes. Acupuncture has been extensively researched in the area of fatigue. Multiple studies consistently show that people increase their energy after receiving a series of acupuncture sessions. What happens is that acupuncture almost is like a recharging system for our batteries, our energy reserves. There is an acupuncture point that's located below the knee and on the outside of the leg, and this is one of the major points that is used to improve energy flow.
