Headaches can be a debilitating condition that can significantly impact a person’s day-to-day life. Whether it’s tension headaches, migraines, or headaches due to sinusitis, most people will experience them at some point. Traditional Chinese Medicine offers a holistic approach to treating chronic headache disorders, using a variety of characteristics such as pain location, type of pain, and the time of day the pain starts.

Acupuncture, a part of Traditional Chinese Medicine, can be an effective treatment for reducing pain and associated symptoms. Additionally, it can also be used as a preventative treatment when combined with lifestyle changes such as sleep hygiene, exercise, and diet. If you suffer from chronic headaches, acupuncture may offer a natural and holistic solution to help reduce the frequency and severity of your symptoms.

Acupuncture has been shown to be effective in treating a variety of dermatologic conditions, including atopic dermatitis, urticaria, and general itch. By examining the appearance of the skin and conducting a full TCM holistic intake, the root condition can be diagnosed and treated.

Acupuncture techniques such as clearing heat, nourishing blood and Yin, and eliminating wind can bring physical and mental relief. Many skin conditions seen in our clinic relate to internal heat or blood stasis, such as acne, rosacea, psoriasis, and atopic dermatitis. These terms describe a complex array of symptoms, signs, and patho-mechanism in TCM.

If you are interested in trying acupuncture and have private insurance, it’s best to contact your insurance provider directly to determine if acupuncture is covered under your plan and what the specifics of your coverage are. This will help you make informed decisions about your healthcare options.
