Acupuncture
What the Chinese realized, Western science has since proven in the 20th century. Acupuncture points are related to the neural pathways into the spinal cord from which the organs first developed.
Herbs and acupuncture stimulate points on the body, because all the acupuncture meridians (energy pathways) have extension into the brain, when we treat points on the body we are also treating the brain.
