Chinese herbs are often used in conjunction with acupuncture and other holistic modalities for added therapeutic effect. While many cultures have herbal medicine traditions, the sophistication of Chinese herbal medicine is unsurpassed. Chinese herbal medicine has a long history reaching back several thousand years, and the resulting system is now used to treat everything from the common cold to symptoms associated with cancer.
Many first-time patients are concerned that acupuncture needles will feel like hypodermic injections at the doctor's office, but they won't. The acupuncture intake process will involve questions about your current state of health, past illnesses, and family history. Acupuncture works by activating the body's own healing powers, so it can be beneficial for many health conditions.
The needles that are used during your acupuncture treatment are extremely thin, sterile, disposable needles. You might feel a slight pin prick at more sensative areas in the body when the needle is first inserted or no feeling at all in other areas. Once the needle is in the body patients can feel a heaviness in the area, warmth, pressure, numbness, tingling, or an electrical feeling down a point channel.
The intake form asks questions about your current state of health, past illnesses, and family history. These questions are important because the holistic approach of integrative medicine takes everything into account and an illness in one area of the body will ultimately lead to an imbalance in another.
Acupuncture works by activating the body's own healing powers, so it can be beneficial for many health conditions. The World Health Organization (WHO) and the National Institute of Health (NIH), has documented many symptoms, diseases, and conditions that have been shown in controlled clinical trials to be effectively treated with acupuncture.
