What Can Acupuncture Do For You

Acupuncture

That a needle stuck into one's foot should improve the function of one's liver is obviously incredible. It can't be believed, in terms of currently accepted physiological theory 'It makes no sense'. Within our system of explanation there is no reason why a needle-prick should be followed by an improvement of liver function. Therefore, we say, it can't happen.

The only trouble with this argument is that, as a matter of empirical fact, it does happen.

(From the foreword by Aldous Huxley in Acupuncture: Care of Many Diseases by Dr. Felix Mann.)
