Improving Immune Function with Acupuncture

Acupuncture has played an important role in traditional ancient Chinese medicine for centuries. Medical practitioners and healers in Eastern countries have long used acupuncture to address the discomfort of patients exhibiting many different symptoms, including headaches, dental pain, menstrual cramps, and respiratory disorders, to name just a few. Recent decades have seen interested researchers in Western countries conducting clinical trials which conclude the effectiveness of these historical therapies at modulating the immune system.

Boost Your Immune System and Stay Healthy

With ever-increasing news of COVID-19 (Coronavirus) spreading globally, I have had many patients ask me what they can do (in addition to proper and frequent hand washing, staying away from sick people, staying at home if you are sick, not traveling or traveling only when absolutely necessary, etc.) to maintain a healthy immune system to protect themselves and their family.

Acupuncture for Health and Wellness

Acupuncture is an ancient medicinal technique that has been used for thousands of years. It is a part of Traditional Chinese Medicine that aims to improve the flow of qi through the body. The traditional belief is that a blockage of qi in the body limits the effectiveness of organs in the body and creates many ailments. Releasing the qi to flow through the body can improve organ function, relieve pain, and increase overall quality of life. Medical knowledge has come a long way since the origins of acupuncture to improve the flow of qi in the body but acupuncture is still considered an effective way of treating and assisting with medical conditions and has migrated from China to be used all across the world.
