Five Element Acupuncture is one of many types of acupuncture therapy. Students of Five Element Acupuncture learn to treat the body, mind, heart, and spirit of the patient, thus giving the individual an overall feeling of well-being and harmony.

Practitioners of Five Element Acupuncture believe that a patient's health can be improved by correctly balancing the five elements of Earth, Fire, Metal, Water and Wood. Five Element Acupuncture schools teach potential practitioners to observe these elements to discover which one has the greatest affect on the client.

Students are instructed to consider the patient's history very carefully. To completely understand the needs of each individual, Five Element Acupuncture practitioners gather information about the environment, history, and the Five Elements that are affecting the life of the patient.

Practitioners of Five Element Acupuncture seek out energy blocks along the acupuncture meridians to discover which of the five elements is blocked and how it may be affecting the patient. Based on the five elements, a Five Element Acupuncture practitioner will carefully choose acupuncture points to help bring relief and harmony to patients.
