Acupuncture
Chinese Herbal Medicine
Acupuncture has been shown in scientific studies to be very effective for a wide range of medical issues. It is also very effective for patients who “fall through the cracks” of Western medicine. Because it holistically addresses individuals, not diseases, it can be very helpful for people who feel “unwell” but who don’t have a medical diagnosis.
Acupuncture can be used together with Western medical treatment when necessary. There are no side effects or interactions. And acupuncture can often treat the side effects of Western medications, including chemotherapy and radiation during cancer treatment.
Some conditions respond best to a combination of Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine. Chinese Herbal Medicine is widely used in Asia to treat a huge number of complaints. It uses formulas that typically contain 3-15 herbs in combination based on your Chinese Medical diagnosis.
I have a pharmacy of powdered herbs that I can combine into individualized formulas that specifically address your constitution and your complaints. The herbs I use are tested and safe and the formulas are well studied and known to be effective. I also use herbal formulas in pill form as needed.
