We would like to share with you our personal view, beliefs and approach about the research that is presented on these pages.
We both value the research of modern science and the many developments that have been discovered.
We also value the depth of wisdom and knowledge of traditional and classical five element acupuncture, which integrates the many aspects of body and mind.
We acknowledge the information gained from research, and we endevaour to use it where appropriate when meeting the needs of an individual who is suffering in health.
We hope later to share more information on the five elements of acupuncture.

Adrian White's Comment
'Interestingly, the results for the primary and secondary outcomes ... -
Also note that this treatment seems widely applicable in shoulder problems, since there was no attempt to make a Western diagnosis of the patients' actual disorder.
The trial indicates acupuncture is an effective alternative to conventional orthopaedic treatment for Chronic Shoulder Pain.'
(X 4, X 11, X 14, X 15, 15 treatments over 6 weeks)
This study showed true acupuncture was more effective than sham acupuncture; three months after treatment the improvements were still maintained in teh true acupuncture group.
