When an acupuncture needle is inserted into the body,
the body activates the immune system and its healing properties.
A properly selected Acupuncture point sometimes stops
chronic or acute pain on contact, reduces inflammation and its neurological symptoms.
Acupuncture is a complete healing system working on physical, emotional, mental and spiritual
levels, all at the same time. Acupuncture is a great alternative to harmful pain killers.
What makes Acupuncture so great is that it is non invasive method that not only heals person's energy
and internal organs, but at the same time greatly reduces emotional and physical stress making pursuit of optimal
health more safe, comfortable and relaxing.
Our clinic uses many unique Acupuncture styles to best address
multiple and complicated problems of a modern patient. We use almost exclusively
Dr. Tung's Acupuncture System which is known for powerful results with few acupuncture needles (works on multi-dimensional levels,
several issues are addressed in a single session) as well as Scalp Acupuncture for its powerful
stress reducing properties as well as endocrine system enhancing effects.
Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine can treat simple to hard
to cure conditions. From simple neck, low or upper back and shoulder pain, to infertility and chronic and degenerative diseases
like Strokes, Parkinson's, Chronic Fatigue Multiple Sclerosis and various Immune and Reproductive Disorders.
In
many cases, especially in acute problems (up to 3 months) muscle pain can be relieved from 30 seconds
up to 5 minutes upon proper selection and insertion of the Acupuncture needles. Even in chronic cases of pain Acupuncture
is able to relieve the pain before the end of s single visit in most instances. (Every case
is different and no guarantees, nor promises are made.) However there are many chronic conditions that require 3-6 visits
to feel pain relieve.
Many of our clients improved their health and
beat infertility, reduced or got off their prescription medications due to significant improvement in their health and
symptoms or simply improved their quality of life. Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine is a powerful tool for unlocking
infinite possibilities to a better health !
The World Health Organization recognizes acupuncture and
other branches of this Alternative Medicine's ability to treat about 50 common disorders.
Pain & Painful Conditions - in
Chinese Medicine is usually associated with blockages of energy and (or) blood in one or several Acupuncture
meridians or channels.
Acupuncture is well
known to be very effective for any kind of pain, especially: Sciatica and Upper or Low Back Pain, Neuralgia's, Neck,
Shoulder and Knee Pain, Migraine Headache etc. Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine also treats Spinal Cord
Injuries, Paralysis and brain injuries: Stroke and Parkinson disease, as well as TMJ and many types of Headache and Migraine.
Acupuncture for Chronic & Acute Low Back Pain
- this type of pain is usually associated in Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture
with the Bladder and Kidney meridians (energy flow). Back Pain is perhaps one of the most common conditions patients
get treated with Acupuncture for. Back pain limits range of motion and complicates daily activities such as sleeping and sitting
in a chair. In recent Back Pain studies Acupuncture helped successful recovery for many study participants. Weather
you have recent back pain or chronic (for 10 or even 20 years), Acupuncture may still successfully and effectively reduce
your chronic or acute back pain in a reasonable time without surgery (consult your medical Doctor) so you can resume your
daily and sports activity pain free, have a normal sleep and avoid or get off toxic pain medications or steroids. *Click for more on Acupuncture for Back Pain*
Same Acupuncture approach is
applied for sports injuries or sprains. Active sports participants and athletes use Acupuncture to improve their performance
reduce injuries and get back on track. In some severe cases of pain (headache, low back pain or sciatica) blood letting is
done. (a few drops of blood are released to remove blood stasis and obstruction. It is a relatively painless
experience.) In some difficult painful cases, bleeding may produce impressive results, normally not achievable
neither with Acupuncture nor Herbs.
No matter what type of pain ( Sciatica or Low Back Pain ) you
have, Acupuncture would be a very good choice to manage and treat your pain. Pain Management is one of our primary specialties
and we have a good success rate.
Cancer - Acupuncture can be used for cancer to relieve the side effects of chemo and radiation therapy
(fatigue, nausea immune system etc.) as well as reduce pain, anxiety and stress. Any type of cancer can be helped with
Acupuncture to expedite the recovery and healing on many levels.

the immune system and reducing symptoms and strengthening the function of internal organs.

enhanced life quality. Click for more on Acupuncture for Migraines & Headache
TMJ- Temporomandibular joint pains come from tension and blockages
of energy in the Liver & Gall Bladder energy as lateral parts of the body belong to such. Difficulty opening once jaw,
limited range of motion and pain are all the symptoms of TMJ. We have seen clients who could only eat liquids, because
of the pain and inability to open the mouth wide enough to consume solid food. Acupuncture is fast and effective method to
restore TMJ to a working balance.
