Then how acupuncture stimulate the body points to re-balance the yin and the yang in each
internal organs, that's the mechanism of how acupuncture treat a disease. For instance,
let's take lung organs as a example. Lung has a yin and a yang, so we have the body
fluid circulating in the lung, and also the yang represents lung function. If you have
depleted a lung yin side, which means you depleted the fluids, and the nutrients in
the lung, then you can end up dry coughing, you can end up tuberculosis; you can end up
very dry skin, because lung channel also runs on the skin to protect our body from the pathogens,
the microorganism invading our body. That's the yin side of the lung, and the yang side
of the lung represent the function of the lung. How the lung breathe in, and breathe
out oxygen to give us, the whole body, energy to support other internal organs function.
So if there is young deficiency in lung function then this person cannot protect the body from
the virus and bacteria, so they tend to always get a cold, a flu, and in that situation we
use needles to strengthen lung function to achieve the yin and the yang balance.
