Acupuncture from East to West

Scientific research and clinical application of acupuncture and acupuncture anesthesia began to receive prominent attention in China in the late 1950’s, and have since been integrated in multiple areas of medical care in the East and West as an effective and affordable intervention.

This documentary traces the past, present and future of acupuncture in research and patient care through expert interviews illustrated with rare archival footage. This video is produced by the Visual History Project of the UCLA Center for East-West Medicine.
