Internal Organ Issues

Acupuncture Can Boost and Regulate the Internal Organs

One of the unique abilities of acupuncture is that it can boost the functioning of organs and systems that are running low and help your organs better coordinate so that your body runs more smoothly overall. It can also help clear out excesses of inflammation, toxins, fluids, and congestion that may be hindering the functioning of your internal organs. Acupuncture can help address a multitude of issues of all the different internal organs and systems such as digestion, reproduction, and immunity.
 

Complex and Chronic Conditions

Acupuncture can help with these types of conditions because it focuses not just on symptomatic relief, but on correcting the underlying pattern of imbalance that is giving rise to your symptoms. It also offers a different way of thinking about how the body works, why conditions develop, what symptoms mean, and how to treat them, so it can often be effective when other treatments have failed. 
 

Sub-clinical and Vague Symptoms

Because it is based on the premise of prevention, acupuncture is excellent for identifying and correcting conditions that are in their earliest stages. Even though these types of conditions may be too mild or vague to register on standard medical tests, they can still indicate the very beginnings of imbalance and disease. Chinese medicine is uniquely skilled at identifying, interpreting, and correcting these imbalances, eliminating them in their initial stages, before they have time to advance and take root.
 

Complementary, Supportive Therapies that Enhance Acupuncture

Chinese medicine is so much more than just acupuncture. I am also trained in herbal medicine, 5 element nutrition, and different types of traditional hands-on techniques. I find that these complementary therapies can help enhance the effects of acupuncture. If they would be beneficial for your condition I will include them with your session at no extra charge. For example, there are herbal formulas specific to all of the different internal organs and systems, that can help address your symptoms from the inside out. My toolbox includes acupuncture, herbal medicine, tui na (Chinese medical massage), zhi ya (acupressure), chi nei tsang (abdominal massage) ba guan (cupping), gua sha (massage with jade and horn tools), topical herbal formulas for pain, and 5 element nutrition.
