Abstract
In acupuncture courses, they usually teach the function of each point to treat the symptoms presented by the patient. In this article, I will follow the commandments of Hippocrates (460 a.c -377 a.c), the father of medicine, that said that “it is more important to treat the patient and not the disease the patient has”. Using acupuncture, we need to treat the patient and not just the symptoms presented by each patient to achieve good results, treating the majority of the patient’s symptoms at the same time.
