return to a state of dynamic equilibrium. The choice of acupuncture
points to be used is the most crucial part of the treatment. The acupuncturist

acupuncture points. He can then plan the treatment to eliminate obstructions in
the flow of Chi and to balance the Yin and Yang. After the acupuncturist has
examined the patient and reached a diagnosis, he decides how the patient should
be treated.
