My technique
came about throughout 6 years of treating patients with Acupuncture for
allergies and sensitivities. I had eagerly attended Dr. Ellen Cutler's
classes for 2 years. I used her procedures with great success and was
very pleased overall with my results. But as Dr. Cutler had cautioned
-
I couldn't help but to re-invent her wheel.
What
is Acupuncture and Can it Help Me?
Acupuncture
is over 3,000 years old and is used by a large part of the Eastern world.
In most cases, very thin, short needles are inserted in specific points
of the body. They are inserted just below the surface and are left in
a place for a short time. The amount of pain felt is usually less than
that of a mosquito bite and dissipated rapidly. You usually feel relaxed
and peaceful for the duration of the treatment.
What
Can I Expect On MY First Visit?
Oriental Medicine has a very individualistic, complex approach to
your health. We will start with your health history and lifestyle. I will
ask quite a few questions, sometimes starting with your birth. I will
want you to talk openly wand honest with you. You will not be complaining
about helping me to help you. Oriental Medicine takes care of the whole
person, not just an organ, limb, or symptom.
Acupuncture
and Oriental Medicine Work!
29 Patients with severe osteoarthritis of the knee, each awaiting arthroplasty
surgery, were randomized to receive a course of acupuncture treatment
or be placed on a waiting list to receive similar acupuncture treatment
starting 9 weeks later. Of the 29 patients, 7 were able to cancel their
scheduled surgeries.
Acceptance
of Acupuncture in the United States
Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine is one of the fastest growing forms
of health care in the United States. This explosion is due to the recognition
by consumers and regulators of the safety, effectiveness and low cost
of this form of health care.
Children
and Acupuncture

Acupuncture
gets to the point
