Insomnia
Sleep is golden. Sleeplessness can be hell. There are many interweaving factors that affect sleep. Chinese medicine sees it mostly as a function of proper Yin in the body. By supporting the Yin with Integrative Acupuncture Care: acupuncture therapy, and herbal formulas, along with treating any other underlying metabolic and endocrine health issues, sleep can be promoted and the natural balance of the body can be restored.
(Menopause, Stress, Hyperthyroid, Adrenal, Anxiety, Fatigue)
Kidney Disease
Impairment of the kidneys and diseases related to them can be treated with Traditional Oriental Medicine. Acu-points along the kidney meridian and certain herbal combinations can support kidney health. Depending on the condition, Integrative Acupuncture Care can play a primary or complimentary role. (Digestive Health, G.I. Health, IBS, Inflammatory Bowel, Leaky Gut, GERD, Hyperacidity, Diarrhea, Constipation, Parasites, Stomach Flu, Candida)
Liver Health
Regulating the Liver pathways (Liver Qi) is instrumental to healing and balance. The liver is the great processor of the body and also the seat of the emotional balance in the view of Traditional Oriental Medicine. By assessing symptoms, pulse and blood chemistry, the energetic and physiologic aspects of the liver can be evaluated and supported. Moving congestion, clearing heat and supporting detox pathways are all abilities of Integrative Acupuncture Care. For more serious liver health issues, longer-term approaches of working with viral loads, supporting immune health, re-building the “Righteous Qi” and healing of the liver are indicated.
(Constrained Emotions, Detoxification Support, Gallbladder, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, Fatty Liver, Cirrhosis)
Mood Issues
Because Traditional Oriental Medicine is at its core a holistic system, psychological states, moods and emotions are seen as deeply interrelated to organ systems and matters of the Spirit. The imbalances that result from mood issues can be treated with Integrated Acupuncture Care, and have been, with great success, for many years. Assessing hormones and other physiologic aspects of health, like food intake and neuro-chemistry may be advisable as well.
(Anxiety, Depression, Grief, Anger, Irritability, Worry, Fear, Sadness)
Orthopedic, Pain & Sports Conditions
Loss of daily function or quality of life from pain and joint problems is all too common. Treating physical pain and injury is one of the greatest functions of Traditional Oriental Medicine. The results that can be achieved from use of acupuncture, herbal liniments, and soft tissue therapies (Orthopedic Massage) to restore function, relieve pain and promote recovery are fantastic. At my office I integrate Motor Point Acupuncture with a contemporary understanding of neurology and orthopedics for greater effect. With none of the drawbacks that can come with surgical interventions, Integrative Acupuncture Care can improve and/or resolve many orthopedic and pain conditions, often within a few sessions. Integrative Acupuncture Care can also help speed the physical recovery from surgery, and in some case may be a viable alternative to surgery.
