Correct. No arguments from me on that. However, as noted in the Wikipedia article, few modern day acupuncture therapist actually incorporate the original concepts of qi and meridians in their practice.
What I was saying was the actual insertion of needles can release endorphins and that's a plausible explanation for reduced pain besides just the placebo effect.

- aestra 13y agoA lot of communication is non-verbal, body language, tone of voice, etc. It is incredibly easy to misinterpret when you are only given a small part of the communication. :)
