Acupuncture can help with a number of common ailments:

While it may be difficult to believe, the body wants to be healthy. Generally speaking, the human organism (or any living creature) is designed to thrive and function in an optimal state. Otherwise, we would not survive past perhaps a few years after birth.

So, what is the best way to keep our bodies in balance.

The answer may be found in acupuncture.

While this practice has been around for well over 2000 years, Traditional Chinese Medicine, or TCM, has only been recognized here in the United States in the last 30 years. It first gained notoriety in 1972 after President Nixon opened talks with China. James Reston, a New York Times journalist covering the event, had a medical emergency and underwent an appendectomy with acupuncture being used as the only anesthetic.

Today you, or someone you know, has been treated by acupuncture. What you may not know, however, is the huge range of afflictions that acupuncture can treat. Aside from back and neck-pain, acupuncture is recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) to successfully treat a wide variety of illnesses including:

* Asthma/Allergies: Chronic asthma, allergic rhinitis, sinus infections, sinus congestion.
* Emotional Disorders: Stress, panic and anxiety attacks, depression, insomnia
* Digestive Disorders: Heartburn, irritable bowel syndrome, chronic constipation/diarrhea.
* Pre and Post Natal Care / Pregnancy: Infertility, labor-induction (shorten delivery time), reduce morning-sickness symptoms including nausea
* Other: Dysmenorrhea, PMS, headaches, TMJ, tennis elbow, Bell’s Palsy, sciatica, weight loss, drug addiction
