Acupuncture uses small needles that are placed into specific points around the body. It works to help to bring your body more balance. Chinese medicine is an entire medical system that has the capacity to help a large variety of issues. With the use of acupuncture needles around the body in meridian pathways, the energy or qi is either used to move stuck qi in an area or to call qi to the area.
Put very simply acupuncture uses needles to help bring the body into balance. Acupuncture works really well to relieve pain allover the body. I also have experience treating digestive issues like IBS and Crohns. I have had many patients with Multiple Sclerosis, Lupus, Rheumatoid arthritis, and other auto immune conditions. I also have experience in treating stroke recovery, which is best done as soon as possible.
Acupuncture can also help with Fertility, PCOS, Endometriosis, and the perimenopause/menopause transition. I also learned a lot from Dr Romm about lifestyle changes during the reproductive years. This involves diet, relaxation techniques, herbal medicine and I can recommend functional medicine ways to help, although I do not practice Western medicine I can recommend some medical doctors.
