An awful lot of Western medicine and biology also are at the "it just works" or "black box" level of understanding, really they are.
As for acupuncture ... I became a very tentative believer when I tried using an alleged pressure point for relieving nausea and it worked. On my dog. Repeatedly. It works on the other dog, too. Pretty cool! (My sister uses it when she's sailing. Er, on her, that is.)
