Five Element acupuncture
The
classical theories of acupuncture
have been developed and
refined for over 5,000
years and form the basis
for all styles of acupuncture.
Clinical practice however,
varies enormously. Five
Element acupuncture has
its roots in Japanese and
Korean styles as well as
the Chinese tradition but
was brought to Europe in
the 20th century and developed
initially in the UK and
France, before spreading
to the USA in the 1960s.
There are now many colleges
of Five Element acupuncture
in the USA and the UK.
Ongiara
College of Acupuncture
and Moxibustion opened
in Ontario, Canada in 2009. Its
philosophy and clinical
application is particularly
suited to our Western lifestyle
and Western causes of disease
and conditions.
