How Does Acupuncture Treat Kidney Disease

Acupuncture is a treasure in the Chinese medicine treatment. It has made outstanding contributions to the continuity of our Chinese nation. We feel quite helpless in the face of kidney disease, so we think of acupuncture again. After many years of experiments, we found that acupuncture has unique efficacy in treating kidney disease. Well, how does acupuncture treat kidney disease?

Twelve meridians of our body can not only store blood and qi but also regulate qi and blood. When twelve meridians are disordered, or they function improperly, we will suffer from insomnia, vomiting, dizziness, fatigue, pain, swelling, constipation, abdominal distention, fever, numbness, blood in urine and night sweat, etc. From this, we can see swelling, oliguria, anuria, blood in urin and fatigue as well as other kidney disease symptoms are all caused by abnormal twelve meridians. To solve kidney disease problem, we first need to treat the problem of twelve meridians.

Oral taking Chinese medicine is one good way to treat twelve meridians. However, nowadays, since environment pollution become very serious, the quality of Chinese herbs is also affected. As a result, some effective Chinese herbs can not be used as before.

Due to the various causes, the treatment for kidney disease requires acupuncture. Acupuncture can open up the meridians and improve blood circulation, make the blood and qi function according to the normal order. Acupuncture can treat twelve meridians fundamentally. When twelve meridians get normal, kidney disease is also treated.

Acupuncture has three functions in treating kidney disease:
