In Saam Acupuncture Clinic, we use Saam Acupuncture Method which is a unique Korean principle that was originated by a sage who was called “Saam”, one of the oriental medical sages in an ancient Korean dynasty around 400 years ago. He was known as a mysterious and legendary sage who practiced the Buddhist meditation in a small stone cave for 13 years and originated his unique acupuncture principle. His name “Saam” was derived from “living under the stone cave”
Underlying the practice of Saam Acupuncture Method, the view is based on the ancient Chinese perception of humans as microcosms of the larger, surrounding universe – interconnected with nature and subject to its forces. The human body is regarded as an organic entity in which the various organs, tissues, and other parts have distinct functions but are interdependent each other. In this view, health and disease relate to balance of the functions.
Saam Acupuncture Method also uses the theory of Five Elements – wood, fire, earth, metal, and water – to explain how the body works. These elements correspond to particular organs and tissues in the body.
