In a traditional and a modern sense both, Acupuncture is used to address many health concerns. It may not be possible to provide a complete list of everything that acupuncture can do. There are as many kinds of acupuncture point combinations as there are people. One of the strengths of this traditional Asiatic medicine is that it is highly individualized. As research progresses, the list may evolve.
