Cosmetic acupuncture

Approach for acupuncture & moxibustion

Abstract

Recently, cosmetic acupuncture has converged on the acupuncture industry currently, cosmetic acupuncture is in strong demand in clinical scenes every day, and it is a part of classes at training institutions or universities of acupuncture.
Only ten years ago, it was taboo to use acupuncture cosmetically except for special occasions, and acupuncturists and moxa-cauterizers did not have much interest in it. However, against the background of its being required for the "beauty"field, it is seen off and for the wish for youth and beauty of us hoping for a higher quality of life. In June 2010, the 59th annual meeting of Japan Society of Acupuncture and Moxibustion held the International Conference Centre in Osaka Nakanoshima. This acupuncture congress came up with a great topic, and the extension of practical skills for cosmetic acupuncture took place for the first time. We got a high response at the congress. The hall capacity was 350 people and was full. People were even standing in the back because there were no seats left. Therefore, we would like to request you, professors teaching people exhibiting some practical skills at the congress, to write about your thoughts for cosmetic acupuncture and the practice of it, which we hope will be future prospects for cosmetic acupuncture.
