Treatable Conditions


Acupuncture works by stimulating the body's natural healing process and is regarded as one of the safest alternative treatment methods. I use only prepackaged, factory-sterilized needles and dispose of them after each use. In my experience, I have found Acupuncture to be especially effective in treating these and many other conditions:

Colds, Flu & Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (Chronic Mono)
Acupuncture is exceptionally effective in preventing illness and greatly reduces the length of sickness.

Allergy Treatment & Prevention
Acupuncture, in combination with Herbology and simple lifestyle changes is an effective combination for the treatment of respiratory and food borne allergies.

Pain Relief & Recovery from Surgery or Injury
Acupuncture and Herbology are effective in treating acute muscle injuries such as whiplash, back pain, sprained ankle and wrist disorders such as Carpal Tunnel. Acupuncture can aid the body in recovery from broken bones as well as knee and shoulder surgery.

Sleep Disruption & Insomnia
Acupuncture and Herbology provide excellent results without the undesirable side effects of other methods such as pills and sedatives.

Stroke Rehabilitation
Current research shows that Acupuncture, Herbology, Scalp Acupuncture, and Electric Acupuncture can achieve excellent results when combined with other medical therapies.

Hypertension & Coronary Diseases
Patients with high blood pressure, Angina and Hypertension respond well to Acupuncture and Herbology treatment when combined with small lifestyle changes.

Gynaecological Conditions
Dysmenorrhoea, Menorrhagia, PMS, Amenorrhoea, and Endometriosis respond favorably to Acupuncture and Herbology treatment.

Debilitating Disorders
Rheumatoid Arthritis and similar physical conditions respond well to Acupuncture and Herbology.

Progressive Degenerative Disorders*
Current research shows that Acupuncture and Herbology can be extremely effective in the treatment of certain neurological disorders such as Parkinson's.

Treatment of Addiction
Acupuncture is recognized as one of the best treatments for the withdrawal symptoms associated with addictive substances, such as Nicotine, Alcohol, and other Hard Drugs.
