Acupuncture has a definite history of around 2,000 years, and some claim that acupuncture has been in use in China for about 4,000 years. there is also a belief that it dates back to the stone age when stone knives and sharp edged tools, described by the character 'Bian', were used to open and drain abscesses.

The practice of acupuncture originated from ancient China. It is suggested that the practice started in the Stone Age with the discovery of sharpen stones. Stones and bones may have been replaced by metal in the Han Dynasty.
