Alternative MedicineApril 19, 2011Written by Levi Grant1,186 views

Right now, there are literally millions of people in the world needlessly suffering from the effects of tinnitus. Most of these people don't have a clue as to where to turn for help. Fortunately, there are various treatment options available, both conventional and alternative. Tinnitus acupuncture is one alternative method that has been around for centuries. The big question is: "Will it work for you?" Most people are familiar with the basic principles behind the technique involved in acupuncture or tinnitus acupuncture as the insertion of very thin needles into the skin along energy points known as meridians. The theory behind tinnitus acupuncture is a complicated one and is more involved than just sticking needles into the skin. The procedure should therefore be performed only by someone certified in acupuncture. Always be sure to check their credentials and ask questions before you begin treatment. If you speak to a tinnitus acupuncture specialist, he may tell you that tinnitus is a symptom caused by a disruption in the yin and yang cycle. Yin represents water or the body's cooling system. The fire energy of the body is represented by Yang. The acupuncturist may, as part of his initial assessment, observe the patient's pulse and appearance of his/her tongue. The pulse gives the practitioner information relating to the energy condition as it pertains to the body's meridians or energy channels that run along the body. The appearance of the tongue is an indicator of the body's heat, balance of fluid, and digestion. This information will be used as a diagnostic tool and incorporated into the plan of care. As part of the treatment, very thin needles are inserted into the skin at very specific sites. The circumference of the needle is 10 times thinner than most needles used for standard injections, therefore the treatment itself is virtually painless. Sometimes the practitioner may apply various Chinese herbs to the needles. The ultimate goal for many tinnitus sufferers is relief from their symptoms.
