If you didn't know that Traditional Chinese Medicine was created in the 1950's, you're going to want to listen in. On this podcast, we're going to talk about the acupuncture they don't teach us in school & why it's the key to root cause healing. Millions of people across the world benefit from TCM--the modern form of acupuncture--but for many others, it offers only symptom management. In this show, learn how what's missing from TCM could be the key to getting better results, whether you're a patient or a practitioner.

Everything You Know About Acupuncture is a Lie

TITLE: Everything You Know About Acupuncture Is a Lie

SHOWNOTES:

In this episode of The Original Medicine Podcast, MG takes us back to the roots of acupuncture, exploring what we’ve gained—and what we’ve lost—in the shift from classical chinese medicine to modern clinical practice.

We talk about the difference between primary and complement channels, and why understanding both is essential for true healing. This isn’t just about sticking needles into points—it’s about reading the body as a whole, honoring its story, and reconnecting with what acupuncture was really designed to do.

If you’re curious about how lifestyle, energetic balance, and modern life intersect with ancient wisdom, this conversation is for you. Whether you're a practitioner or just curious about Chinese medicine, you’ll walk away with a clearer sense of what it really means to heal in today’s world.
