Conditions Treated With TCM - Acupuncture

Conditions Treated with TCM Acupuncture

Oriental medicine is a very comprehensive system of medicine. It works with your body to produce true healing instead of suppressing symptoms. A few of the conditions successfully treated by acupuncture and Oriental medicine:

General

* Women’s issues, including painful periods, menopause, and other gynecological issues. These are treated without requiring uncomfortable examinations.
* Chronic pain, especially joint and muscle pain, arthritis, as well as headaches and other discomforts.
* Fatigue, including chronic fatigue syndrome, or a general feeling of being down.
* Most conditions that respond to drug treatment, respond even better to acupuncture and Chinese herbs - without side effects. However, we insist on partnering with your doctor to determine a proper course of treatment. Some medications need special care and planning.
* Most chronic conditions such as allergies, asthma, and more respond extremely well to acupuncture.
