Zong Yi Institute for Acupuncture in Stuttgart, Germany, is a renowned acupuncture centre that practices this traditional Chinese therapy with great success. Unlike Western medicine, where symptoms are treated, acupuncture deals with the causes of illness, and time is spent on in-depth discussions with patients coupled, where necessary, with tongue and pulse diagnosis to establish relevant signs and symptoms before diagnosis are made. Acupuncture is a safe and popular form of healing and deals successfully with many ailments such as neurological diseases, colds, stomach, intestinal problems, headaches and migraines, as well as paralysis and nervous disorders. Acupunture is also successfully combined with herbal treatments and at Zong Yi Institute for Acupuncture we offer special medicinal herb preparations suited to individual patients.
