Treatable Conditions

Pain    Cancer Treatment    Gastro-Intestinal    Other Conditions   

Pain

If you have been coping with chronic pain and have had no relief with other modalities, acupuncture might just be the answer for you. I have successfully treated many patients who have had many years of suffering with pain whether it is from a sports injury, repetitive strain injury such as carpal tunnel or arthritis. Acupuncture has succeeded where many modalities fail even with chronic pain.

Cancer Treatment Support

Acupuncture is also an excellent complement to patients undergoing traditional cancer therapies like chemotherapy and radiation.

Some of the treatments are:

  • Before or during chemotherapy and radiation to reduce side effects such as nausea, fatigue, insomnia, anxiety and depression.
  • Before or after surgery to reduce pain or inflammation, and to facilitate healing.
  • After treatment to detoxify and heal the body, build stamina and strengthen the immune system.

Gastro-Intestinal

When gastrointestinal complaints are the primary concern I will consider all aspects of you and your lifestyle to determine where imbalances may lie. Acupuncture and herbal medicine is very effective in treating problems with the mouth, esophagus, stomach, large and small colon, rectum, gallbladder, and liver. Common examples include; canker sores, bleeding gums, nausea, bloating, GERD or heartburn, indigestion chronic and acute, ulcers of the stomach or colon, colitis, IBS, constipation, diarrhea, flatulence and hemorrhoids.

Other Conditions

The World Health Organization (WHO) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) recognize these conditions treated by acupuncture.
