The ancient Chinese practice of acupuncture has been embraced around the world to treat a wide range of health conditions and it is now being used in cosmeceutical — non-surgical cosmetic — treatments, reports our sister paper China Times.
Acupuncture
can be used to smoothen wrinkles by harmonizing various meridians on the face,
which will increase the production of collagen, stretch wrinkles and tighten
facial muscles. The treatment is seen as an natural alternative to western
procedures such as face lifts, botox and collagen injections.
Chen
Chao-tsung, a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine, said Chinese
medicine can contribute in many ways to the cosmetics industry. "Medicine,
acupuncture and massage could all be employed to beautify people's faces
through milder approaches, different from thread acupuncture employed in the
past," he said.
By
inserting 50 to 60 needles at a time, acupuncture can help people generate
collagen so as to tighten facial skin, whereas it takes five to 10 botox
injections to have such an effect, and each only last three months, according
to Chen.
Chen said
that cosmetic acupuncture helped a female patient in her 40s. The patient's
face was asymmetrical, but the collagen regenerated after the non-surgical
treatment, and the right side of her face smoothed while the left part
tightened, Chen said.
There are
70 to 80 TCM doctors in Taiwan who provide similar medical cosmetic services,
according to Chen. He added that a doctor's experience with the procedure is
important as they will ensure minimal pain and bleeding following the
treatment.

"... About Innate
What is innate? Where is it? This is difficult to explain. We told, you dear Human Being, that the elusive Akash information is not in your brain either. You cannot go to your brain to find out who you used to be in a past life. The innate is the same. It's not in your brain, but instead it's in every cell of your body and every molecule of your DNA. The difference between innate and the Akash is that innate is on top (a linear concept for you), and it is always broadcasting, always there. If you know how to listen to it and where it is, you can tune in. Muscle-testing is one way of knowing, a very basic way. Some of you also know that innate responds to acupuncture. Did you know that? Your brain does not.
The Merkabah - Innate's Quantum Field
Innate is aware of all things at the cellular level and is broadcasting all the time. It broadcasts so well that it flows into that which you call the Merkabah of the body. Now, the Merkabah is a quantum field around your body that pulses very strongly with esoteric information, including corporeal health. Many have the ability to see and read this field.
A medical intuitive can stand before you in various degrees of success and read the messages from your innate. This intuitive person does not have to muscle-test to know you've got something going on within your cells. They can see it or sense it within the field around your body. Now, you may have thought that a medical intuitive is looking at your liver or your heart, doing some kind of analysis. That's very linear thinking and is not what is happening. That's your box of belief working overtime. Instead, the medical intuitives are sensing the quantum energy within your field that your innate is broadcasting about your health, of what's going on in the chemistry, and of what might be developing inside you. It's different than you thought, isn't it? That's the innate and that's only one of the things that innate does. ..."
"... The Second Brain
Innate does so many things for you! Some of you are starting to get a bigger picture of where I'm going with this discussion. Here is a concept that we've not really broached before. We're going to give it a name, but please do not misunderstand it. You only have one word for your intelligent control center, and the word is called brain. So we are going to give you a concept that the innate is your second brain. It doesn't function like your first one at all, but it is smart and it is intelligent and it knows what you need. Sometimes it can even replace a function that your logical brain normally does. ..."
