Acupuncture has been around for more than 5,000 years with the promise of healing ailments and other health benefits attributed to the practice. But how did this ancient form of Chinese medicine migrate to Canada, and why is it so popular?

SaltWire host Sarah Poko spoke to Dr. Diana Li of S-T Acupuncture and Natural Medicine Clinic in Bedford, N.S. to discuss the origins and art of acupuncture. Li is also president of the Canadian College of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine.
