Many common but difficult-to-treat conditions and complaints respond to the holistic approach of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Many times there are people whose symptoms do not respond to western medical treatment or prescription drugs, but who find relief and eventual cure with Traditional Chinese Medicine.

The World Health Organization recognizes the use of acupuncture and herbology in the treatment of a wide range of medical conditions, including:

  • Infections: cold and flu, bronchitis
  • Internal disorders: diabetes, hypoglycemia, asthma, high blood pressure, digestive disorders
  • Eyes-ears-nose-throat: ringing in the ears, dizziness, sinus infection, hay fever
  • Dermatological: eczema, acne, herpes
  • Musculo-skeletal and Neurologic: arthritis, sprains and strains, neuralgia, sciatica, back pain, tendonitis, headache, stroke
  • Gynecological and Reproductive: infertility, PMS, menstrual problems, endometriosis, obstetrics
  • Mental/Emotional: anxiety, depression, stress, insomnia, hyperactivity

Patients with cancer, HIV, hepatitis, or chronic fatigue use acupuncture to strengthen their immunity and reduce the side-effects of conventional medicine.

Cat has written an article on how Chinese Medicine can help you strengthen your immune system.

Other conditions that are commonly treated with Chinese medicine are:  Allergies, addictions (including smoking), cardiovascular problems, weight loss, pediatric diseases, postpartum care, geriatric diseases, sexual dysfunction, low energy, migraines, fibroids, and urinary problems.

Quitting Smoking: Acupuncture and herbs can play a powerful role in helping people to quit smoking.
