The American Migraine Foundation is recognizing acupuncture as a good treatment option for those that experience chronic migraines. Some argue that certain dietary restrictions can help with the frequency of one's migraines, alongside regular acupuncture treatments. Migraines are not just headaches,and can manifest differently from person to person. Migraine symptoms can include feeling depressed, light sensitivity, nauseousness, and fatigue. This can last for hours or even several days.  Current modes of therapy can range from pharmaceutical options, nerve pain medication, magnetic brain stimulation, nasal sprays, botox injections, caffeine consumption, calcitonin monoclonal antibodies, stress management, biofeedback, yoga and meditation, consumption of vitamins/minerals, psychological therapy, as well as others. However, Mayo clinic states that clinical trials with patients who tried acupuncture had been helpful for headache pain caused by migraines (July 2023).

Scalp acupuncture has proven to be beneficial for those with any auto-immune diseases, neurological disorders, stroke or brain injuries. Scalp acupuncture increases the blood flow to certain areas of the brain that are in charge of our motor and sensory functions, and thus, neurological improvements will be seen post-treatment. It's interesting to note that many studies have been done showing improvements of the symptomatology of MS, Autism spectrum disorders, Bell's Palsy, Alopecia, and Aphasia when scalp acupuncture was combined with an acupuncture treatment.

Atrial Fibrillation is when the top chambers (atria) of the heart fall out of the heart's natural rhythm, thus creating a greater chance for heart failure, stroke, or other complications. Current forms of treatment include pharmacological medication, such as anticoagulants or antiarrhythmics, and in some cases, heart ablations are done to correct the arrhythmia. However, one should seriously consider adding acupuncture to their treatment plan, as studies have shown acupuncture combined with anti-arrhythmic drugs reduced the incidence of adverse events and enhanced the treatment effect (Li, ong, et al.,2022).Integrating eastern and western medicine is only beneficial.

Endometriosis is a painful medical condition in which endometrial cells can appear outside the uterine cavity. The cells are influenced by hormonal changes in the body. Excision surgery is currently the mode of treatment. The pain can worsen during one's menstrual cycle, and it occurs mostly during a female's reproductive years. Sometimes, it can cause fertility issues, and painful in*******se, as well. Acupuncture is helpful for this condition because it can help diminish pelvic pain, and help to better regulate hormones, by improving blood flow to the parts of the body that regulate hormone production.

Acupuncture and Fertility:
Acupuncture greatly improves the function of the female and male reproductive systems. Many infections or endocrine imbalances could cause problems with conception. Infections can be bacterial, viral, or fungal, and most produce inflammation. Inflammation prevents proper responses of the reproductive systems, and impinges blood flow. Examples include diagnoses of pelvic inflammatory disease, PCOS, and endometriosis. All of these are inflammatory conditions. Acupuncture has been shown to be effective in reducing inflammation, and creating hormonal balance. Current modes of therapy are hormone replacement therapies, in vitro fertilization, and intrauterine insemination. Varicocele surgery or s***m injections are options for men. Adding acupuncture to these modes of therapies that exist today, improves one's fertility much more, due to the nature of what acupuncture does. Acupuncture assists in the production of blood, reduces inflammation, and improves the quality of our bodily systems. According to an article in Medical Acupuncture, "Acupuncture does not increase the risk of miscarriage. Additionally, acupuncture was 42% more effective to increase live births when women had previously failed a cycle, and baseline pregnancy rate continues to mediate acupuncture's effects (Hullender Rubin, L. 2019)."

Often we get asked, can acupuncture do anything for _______ ?? (i.e. arthritis, pain, asthma, fertility, high blood pressure, better sleep, menopause, stress, my auto immune condition, etc. or you fill in the blank here). In short, acupuncture helps with everything. There is nothing acupuncture can't help with. It betters your body, and the way it functions. Everyone should do it, if they haven't tried it already. The next question is usually...."Well, how does it help?"  Thin needles, the size of one hair on your head, are placed on certain acupoints on the body that correspond to our organ systems. The body's central nervous system is activated, blood flow improves, and in essence, we are improving our own body's function with this stimulation. Come in, and experience it for yourself.

Acid Reflux is more common than you think. Do you regularly experience heartburn or have difficulty swallowing? Do you have an occasional cough when lying down? Do you feel something in your throat, or have excessive post-nasal drip? Are you constantly clearing your throat? So many symptoms (GERD, and experiences such as these) fall under the diagnosis of acid reflux. Current modes of treatment are proton pump inhibitors and/or omeprazole. Acupuncture can help lower acid levels in the stomach, and improve the function of the lower esophageal sphincter, thus improving the symptoms of acid reflux. Whether in conjunction with current modes of treatment, or as a treatment alone, acupuncture can greatly help.

Spring is around the corner, and in Chinese medicine, this season corresponds to the liver. A time for renewal, rejuvenation, and to help the body naturally cleanse itself from the overindulgence of the winter holidays. Nutritionally, at this time, it is recommended to eat sour foods, such as fermented foods, like kimchi, pickles, and other fermented foods, and to ensure greens are consumed. Leafy greens, or any sprouted greens would apply here. Warm, cooked green vegetables are preferred, although you can eat them raw, as well. Acupuncture in every season, however, is always beneficial, as well! Happy almost spring!
