Acupuncture uses your body’s resources to return it to a harmonized condition. With very fine needles, the energy already present in the body is moved to areas where it can best relieve pain, relax muscles, increase blood flow, adjust hormonal metabolism, or activate the immune system. Patients generally report a feeling of increased vitality after each treatment.
SCALP ACUPUNCTURE
Chinese Medicine embraces new advancements - in the 1970's it was discovered that by stimulating certain portions of the scalp, there was a beneficial effect on the corresponding part of the brain underlying the skull.
Scalp Acupuncture is particularly useful for the improvement of symptoms of stroke, palsy diseases. neuropathies, choreas (involuntary movement), Multiple Sclerosis, Tourette Syndrome, and other neurological problems.
Courses of treatment vary, depending on severity and duration of the disorder. Scalp acupuncture is more effective when administered frequently (2-3 times per week). Patients often notice improvement even before the needles are removed.
If you know of someone who can benefit from this very effective treatment, please let them know about the availability of Scalp Acupuncture.
EAR ACUPUNCTURE (Auriculotherapy)
In the last century, testing revealed that certain parts of the body (internal and external) could be successfully influenced by stimulating precise points on the ear. The nerves in the ear communicate with every part of the body: because of this, specific acupuncture points on the ear can be used to regulate the body's systems.
Examples are:
- organ points, such as Liver, Kidney, Lung, and Heart
- functional points, such as Allergy and Hypertension
- structural points, such as Sciatic, Knee, Wrist, and Brain
Ear Acupuncture is so successful that it is an accepted method of detoxifying the body in some states' court-mandated drug programs. These specific acupuncture protocols are used to help break addictions, including smoking.
A Stop-Smoking series of 5 treatments with a follow-up treatment is very effective if the patient has already decided to quit smoking. It helps to reduce cravings, withdrawal symptoms and stress.
Results are often instantaneous and dramatic.
