Non-clinical terminology is used for the acupuncture method, but in general the practice is believed to work by stimulating the nervous system to produce a series of healing chemicals. Long, thin needles are inserted into various u201cacupointsu201d on the back and other body parts, depending on the ailment and the practitioneru2019s own methodology.
