Immune Issues

Asthma, Allergies, Sinusitis, Ear Infections, Bronchitis

The body’s defenses start with the airwaves. Sinus passages, bronchial tubes, lungs—issues with any of them can leave you weakened. Worse, breathing problems can sap your strength and leave you feeling sluggish.

Symptoms from seasonal allergies, asthma, bronchitis, and ear infections have all been found to respond positively to acupuncture.

Traditional Chinese Medicine places an emphasis on the health of the lungs. They are known as the “canopy,” since they occupy the upper position of the five zang organs (lungs, heart, liver, spleen, and kidney). The lungs are considered essential to the proper balance and circulation of qi throughout the body.

As such, the lungs and the parts of the body that work in conjunction with them have been a central focus of acupuncture for centuries. Treatments are designed to ensure that the lungs are functioning properly, both as the body’s way of expelling harmful elements, namely carbon dioxide, and in clearing the pathways for qi circulation.

In Western medicine, the practical explanation for how acupuncture helps conditions like asthma or bronchitis is in the natural anti-inflammatory response that it can generate. Inflammation is caused by the release of cytokines, proteins that signal cells to react in that manner. By stimulating key points in the body, acupuncture releases dopamine, which can balance out the immune system's response and lessen the inflammation.

There are numerous treatments that are designed to optimize lung functionality. Our licensed acupuncturist will work with you to find the right treatment for your specific needs

Acupuncture treats Digestive conditions such as IBS, Chrome's disease, constipation, diarrhea, acid reflux, gastritis

Digestive issues big or small can cause a major disruption to anyone’s life. Common issues like gas, constipation, nausea, heartburn, and diarrhea affect everyone occasionally but can be more than just a nuisance when they come on regularly. Chronic conditions like Crohn’s disease, acid reflux, and irritable bowel syndrome can quickly become debilitating.

Traditional Chinese medicine has been using acupuncture to treat digestion for millennia. Pressure points throughout the body—not just in the abdominal region—are used during treatment to alleviate specific symptoms.

Based on the specifics of your condition, the acupuncturist might suggest points that target the gallbladder, liver, or pancreas, in addition to the stomach or intestines. Treatment might also be used to reduce inflammation related to your condition.



Digestion is an integral bodily function. Don’t allow it to become a source of undue stress. Schedule a consultation today to see how we can help bring balance to your body
