What Acupuncture Can Treat

Acupuncture and Chinese medicine is extremely successful in the treatment of a multitude of conditions. Many people try Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine for serious and complex medical problems and find that it can help them when other treatments could not. 

Acupuncture is also often used as a preventative medicine. Many people see their acupuncturist only 2-4 times a year for a "tune up" or "balancing" treatment. This can prevent disease and promote health, energy and vitality.

Your acupuncturist will have to look at the onset of your condition and see what your constitutional diagnosis is to determine if Oriental Medicine can help you.  Each case is unique and it would be difficult to determine how effective acupuncture will be for you without a full assessment.  Please contact several licensed acupuncturists in your area for a consultation to find the best suited practitioner for you.
