Ac.), followed by joining different teams of acupuncturists, physiotherapists, naturopaths, and chiropractors in multidisciplinary clinics. Navid main interest in practicing is pain management and trauma related to various diseases/disorders/disabilities by using acupuncture (different needling techniques), acupoints stimulation, moxibustion, Tui Na, cupping, and Gua Sha, leading to an energy flow (Qi)through the body, thereby reducing pain and improving health. However, in evaluating acupuncture treatment outcomes, many factors are crucial including; patients input and subjective experience, practitioner’s intake and examination, laboratory tests and medical device measurements. It is obvious that various pathological conditions related to different human body systems (nervous, respiratory, digestive, musculoskeletal, etc.) are determined based on all the above factors, and no single factor determines the effectiveness from the practitioners’ perspectives.
