Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a medical system that has been used to diagnose, treat and
prevent illness for over 23 centuries. Acupuncture can remedy acute or
chronic ailments, relieve pain, enhance recuperative powers, and strengthen
the immune system. In an Oriental Medicine assessment, your practitioner
will diagnose, or differentiate, your condition with a thorough examination
which will include an interpretation through medical history, pulse, and
tongue diagnosis. Your practitioner may also use the following adjunct
techniques within your session; Moxabustion (heat), Gua Sha (scraping),
Cupping (suction), Auricular Therapy (ear acupuncture), electrical or laser
stimulation, or even manual manipulation of the pints. There are many
different styles of Acupuncture, including; Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and
Tibetan.
What is a Treatment Like?
Extremely fine, hair-thin, flexible needles are placed at specific points on
the energetic pathways, known as meridians. When the needles are inserted
you may experience a sensation of tingling or warmth. People are surprised
to find that treatments are actually quite relaxing. The length and
frequency of a treatment may vary for each individual and will be determined
by your Acupuncturist or Doctor of Oriental Medicine. Acupuncture treatments
are scheduled according to the nature of your condition. As you improve,
fewer visits are required. Discuss your treatment plan with your
acupuncturist, since each individual is different.
Oriental Herbology
Ancient Chinese herbal formulas are as effective now as they were when first
introduced more than 2,000 years ago. Most formulas consist of two to
eighteen different types of herbs. Formulas treat a wide variety of symptoms
while stimulating the body’s natural healing process. Hospital studies
prescribing individualized complex herbal formulas have demonstrated
excellent results with patients who fail to respond to conventional
pharmaceutical treatments.
How Do I Take Chinese Herbs?
Modern techniques can transform formulas into pills, capsules, granules, or
tinctures to make them easier and more convenient to ingest. Your
practitioner may want you to prepare them as they did in ancient times, by
boiling them and drinking the herbal soup. Chinese Herbology is considered
most safe and effective when prescribed by a qualified practitioner of
Oriental Medicine.
