ACUPUNCTURE The World Health Organization has listed the following diseases, symptoms or conditions for which acupuncture has been proven— through controlled trials—to be an effective treatment: · Adverse reactions to radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy · Allergic rhinitis (including hay fever) · Biliary colic · Depression (including depressive neurosis and depression following stroke) · Dysentery · Dysmenorrhea · Primary Epigastralgia, acute (in peptic ulcer, acute and chronic gastritis, and gastrospasm) · Facial pain (including craniomandibular disorders) · Headache · Hypertension, · Essential Hypotension · Labor preparation · Knee pain · Leukopenia · Low back pain · Breech pregnancy · Morning sickness · Nausea and vomiting · Neck pain · Pain in dentistry (including dental pain and temporomandibular dysfunction) · Periarthritis of shoulder CUPPING Cupping is a practice used for thousands of years in traditional Chinese medicine. It involves creating suction on the skin using a cup made of glass, ceramic, bamboo, or plastic. Negative pressure is created in the cup by applying a flame to the cup to remove air before placing it on the skin. Cupping is used for muscular skeletal issues, fevers, respiratory issues, insomnia and general well-being. MOXIBUSTION Moxibustion is a method of heating specific acupuncture points on the body by burning the herb Artemisia Vulgaris-- known as Moxa-- over the skin. Moxa is used as a stand-alone treatment or sometimes in combination with acupuncture. The herb's properties help to prevent illnesses, strengthen the immune system and its warming nature promotes circulation over areas of chronic pain or muscle tension. Studies have also shown that, when used as an adjunct treatment during chemotherapy, moxibustion can raise the patient's red and white blood cell count and may decrease the negative side effects of allopathic care. HERBS A Doctor of Chinese Medicine can develop a custom herbal prescription that addresses most health complaints to help you restore your health and wellbeing by working as a stand alone therapy or in tandem with acupuncture to support its healing effects. Thousands of years before man-made pharmaceuticals were developed, indigenous peoples used nature's healing substances. For more than 5,000 years, Chinese practitioners developed a system that has codified over 10,000 herbs, many of which form the basis for modern pharmaceutical drugs. Clinically, medicinal herbs are dispensed to each patient as an individual formula based on one’s unique constitution, environment, and medical condition.
