Treatment with Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine
Acupuncture and Herbal medicine provide a unique approach to treatment by supporting the health and wellness of the whole person instead of identifying and isolating disease components, then attacking and eradicating them. By keeping the vitality of the entire person, we provide an optimum environment for healing illness from the inside out and developing long-term strategies for wellness and health. We can help you develop health optimization strategies and long-term care solutions for the following conditions:
Chronic Pain and Pain Management Techniques
Pain is complicated. Scans, imaging, and tests may come out normal, but the pain is real, and it’s messing up your life. Persistent pain is like a car alarm going off for no reason. The car alarm is your nervous system and your body is the car. Your alarm system becomes so sensitive that even a little gust of wind causes it to go off.
We can help you retrain your nervous system to reduce pain and inflammation.
The best way to manage chronic pain is to take a holistic approach. Acupuncture is a critical tool to add to your toolbox for managing chronic pain.
Our office can set up a personalized strategy to assist you with reducing the frequency, duration, and intensity of chronic pain.
