"Acupuncture works by stimulating a natural painkiller in the body that swells arteries and allows more blood to flow through, scientists have discovered" - the telegraph.co.uk
The fact that the study proves acupuncture allows more blood to flow through (via a natural chemical release in within the body) is a major breakthrough, as one of the biggest factors that limit the body's self healing ability is circulation. If blood cannot circulate to certain key areas, those organs will not function and do their job (be it to release rejuvenating hormones or simply to carry away toxic built-up in the area).
"During and immediately after an acupuncture treatment, the level of adenosine in the tissues near the needles was 24 times greater than before" - Dr Maiken Nedergaard, a neuroscientist at the University of Rochester, New York
