Treatments: Acupuncture
Acupuncture is the most accepted modality of TCM with doctors and insurance
companies because it is a great adjunct to the more conventional treatment
protocols available in this country. When patients receive acupuncture they can
greatly reduce or eliminate pain medicine; have better and more restful sleep;
experience reduced stress and anxiety; improve pregnancy rates for infertile
couples; reduce nausea from pregnancy or chemotherapy; improve digestion; and
experience less depression - all without interfering with the other treatments they may be receiving.
Acupuncture has been featured in countless movies, newspaper and magazine articles, and has been endorsed by popular celebrities such as Gwyneth Paltrow and Oprah. To read more about Acupuncture Click Here.
