Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), is a chronic pain condition, which most often affects one of the arms, legs, hands, or feet. The onset of CRPS is typically due to a previous injury.

Most frequently people think about acupuncture being beneficial for pain, fertility, and other internal conditions. However, it often gets overlooked how much Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine can do to treat mental health conditions as well. Every day I am treating people with anxiety, depression, and other mental health concerns.

At the time of writing this post, we are 2 years into COVID and all that has come with these interesting times. I have found that how we have all dealt with COVID and the past 2 years has been really varied and many people have been coming in for treatments to seek support for themselves and their family members for various reasons.

Chinese medicine is rooted in living in harmony with nature and seeing how we are all connected to this rhythm. In Chinese Medicine nature guides how we look at and treat each and every person that comes into the clinic.

Yes! Absolutely.  Acupuncture along with herbal medicine are two great ways to treat and prevent seasonal allergies. Acupuncture can not only help to treat and minimize the symptoms you experience with allergies but it can also boost the immune system so that your allergies won’t bother you in the first place. 

I also get asked multiple times per week “What is the difference between acupuncture and dry needling”. As an acupuncturist, I found that I used to struggle with how to answer this as it is complex in many ways.
