How Acupuncture Works - by Lloyd G. Wright, LAc, DNBAO

I had to comment because acupuncture saved my life... I was going to a MD doctor for two decades and she couldn't figure out why my hands were numb and no strength. I went to acupuncture and she unlocked my hands and my mid back, lower back and legs . I felt like I completely got a new spine put in my body after treatment. her name is Natalie and she's the most wonderful acupuncturist in the world .. I'm so glad that I know her and I know about acupuncture no more vicodins for me and I fired my MD doctor.

I'm watching this video in 2019 and seriously, this video deserves more views and like. Your explanation makes it so much easier for us common folks to understand how acupuncture works. Thank you.

Very well done! I have watched lots of videos on this topic and I feel that this one is the best one yet. Easy to understand! He covers a lot of information too.

I worked in traditional medicine for a long time and was facing surgery (when no other treatment worked for a shoulder injury.) As a last ditch effort on the urging of a friend I decided to try Acupuncture. I was pretty sure it was a bunch of bunk but I went anyway since surgery was not the route I wanted to go but the constant pain and lack of range of motion was a motivating force. I went to see Lloyd Wright and after him taking a careful history and examination and finally acupuncture, I left being able to move my arm (albeit still painfully) a little bit above my shoulder. Approximately 5 sessions later I was pain free and back to full activities. That was probably 14 years ago. Since then I have seen Lloyd for back pain, knee pain and arthritis. Acupuncture has been around for 2500 years for a reason. Make sure you see someone licensed and knowledgeable which doesn't mean your Chiropractor or Physical Therapist that took a 2 week course. If someone is going to stick needles in you make sure they know what they are doing. That said, I often fall asleep during treatment (so the pain is minimal)

First video I’ve seen on acupuncture that makes it easy to understand - thank you!! I get very bad migraines and am allergic to nsaids (ibuprofen/aspirin/Advil/etc) so all I can take is Tylenol (which rarely helps)and lie down in a dark room and wait for it to go away. Sometimes takes days. Ive done acupuncture twice now while having a migraine and it makes the migraine go away pretty quick. Definitely made me a believer & will continue doing it!

I’m so fascinated by this. Today was my second visit to the acupuncturist.

Great Explanation! I am enjoying great benefits with accupuncture.

Thanks Caterina, I am glad to hear TCM worked well for you. I am blessed to have chosen this amazing mediince as my career and it is a delight to share it's wisdom.

WoW! talking about a compact educational video👏 executed smoothly with Grace. It was simple, QUICK, clear, visually and verbally understandable and most IMPORTANTLY explained with Excellency, very impressive and appreciated very MUCH.🙏 Thank YOU for taking time to give EVERYONE a run down of how acupuncture truly benefits our health and overt all well being. I learned this in school with SHIATSU somewhat similar but NOT like this video ...😊

This video was very understandable and comprehensive in helping someone with the basic of acupuncture, yet it also provided enough depth to encourage learning about this process in the future. Well done.

Awesome video! Acupuncture is the first thing that has worked for my chronic Lyme disease.

Definitely a stellar presentation! So well laid-out and explained. Thank you! :-)

Well explained!

Wow... you are super thorough! Thanks!! Subscribed :)

Thank you, sir. God bless you.

Sir this is the best video on acupuncture I have ever seen

The video seemed to imply more instructional content was coming.. As a teacher, I learned a lot from you, watched this over and over till I got it. I'm thinking that you would be the right person to ask: What would you say the best books are for beginning in acupuncture? If you like a particular author, and they have 'beginner' books too, then I think I'd learn a lot from them.

Thank you for this education video.

Amazing!!! I would love more videos!
