Classical\nFive-Element Acupuncture<\/strong>\nis an ancient tradition of acupuncture based on the principle that\nfive universal elements (wood, fire, earth, metal, and water) exist\nin everything and everyone. These Elements affect a person\u2019s\nemotions, personality, health, and response to treatment. Each\nindividual is influenced by one element more than the others. This is\nknown as the Causative Factor, more commonly referred to as the \u201cCF\u201d.\nClassical Five-Element differs from other schools of acupuncture as\nit focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of the \u201cCF\u201d as the\nsource of imbalance. This approach to treatment also acknowledges\nthat mind, body, and spirit are an integrated whole and that symptoms\nare a reflection of imbalance within that whole. Each patient will\nhave a different treatment process that reflects the uniqueness of\nthat individual and the cause of illness. (Learn more about\ntreatment)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
