            Acupuncturist 
                Healing
               Acupuncture 
                is the healing of the body, through the use of small needles inserted 
                into the different points of the body. An acupuncturist is the 
                person who performs acupuncture. Acupuncturists are trained in 
                Traditional Chinese Medicine. Dr Jimmy Lu is one of the best acupuncturists 
                in Johannesburg, and he comes highly recommended by his patients. 
                The goals of accupuncture  is to promote healing and to relieve 
                pain. Acupuncturists are there to help you with your health problems 
                and to help you understand your body and the energy it gives off. 
              Body points and Acupuncture 
               The 
                body consists of 12 points called meridians. These points are 
                the pathways through which a life force substance called Qi flows. 
                An acupuncturist will take a medical history, inspect the patients 
                complexion, tongue and a pulse diagnosis. After studying all this, 
                the acupuncturist is then ready to perform the acupuncture. He 
                will insert small needles into the body, at the right points depending 
                on where the imbalance is. This is not painful, and you can feel 
                the healing results in no time. 
              Acupuncturists-Therapists 
               Acupuncture 
                is sometimes called needling therapy. So it is safe to say that 
                acupuncturists are in a way therapists. The only difference being 
                the form of therapy being used. Dr Jimmy Lu has many years experience 
                within this field of medicine. He treats all who come to the center 
                with respect and care. Always professional, and humble. The center 
                is his way of helping people restore the balance in their lives.               
              Acupuncturists always have to use sterile needles. 
                They insert them in the body, by finding the right pressure points. 
                When inserted into the body, the depth of the needles may vary, 
                this resulting in different healing processes. The acupuncturist 
                knows which points to insert the needles into, without harming 
                the patient.
