Acupuncture Is not the Same as the Chinese Medicine

Chinese medicine doctor and philologist of Chinese language Filip Manja held a lecture on Saturday, March 9th on University of Banja Luka Faculty of Political Studies. The title of the lecture was “Acupuncture – myths and truth”.

This lecture was organized by Confucius Institute at UBL and it attracted citizens of Banja Luka among which there were doctors, physiotherapists and people who are generally interested in this type of Chinese medicine. During the lecture, Filip Manja pointed out some of the usual myths about acupuncture and Chinese medicine in general.

He said that acupuncture is only one segment of Chinese medicine, which also includes herbal medicine, acupressure, vacuum glasses etc. He also talked about acupuncture spots on human body and how to solve some of the most common problems people today have. Citizens of Banja Luka were very satisfied with this lecture because it gave answers on this subject which is usually not very common in this re

ion. They asked questions about the efficiency of acupuncture, about needles that are used and the number of treatments needed to solve the problems.

The lecture lasted for 45 minutes and after that Filip Manja demonstrated the acupuncture on some of the attendees.
