No doubt if you are new to Chinese Medicine and other modalities you might wonder “Can this help ME?”
Different modalities in medicine have their tremendous successes and failures. If you have a broken leg, go to the hospital, have an xray and a good orthopedic doctor evaluate your treatment options, of course. That is obvious, but when your problem is allergies, hormones, arthritis, mood problems, or viral disease, for instance, what will actually help? If your M.D. has told you all treatment options are exhausted, or that you have to learn to live with your pain, or recommends that you look into some alternatives, is there some actual help out there that will not take forever, and cost an arm & leg?
Unfortunately, due to state law restrictions that protect vested interests, we are unable to state specifically that Chinese Herbal Medicine, Acupuncture and Certified Hypnotherapy can effectively treat, or cure, any “Disease” or condition, even if we have seen it many times. However, the WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION and the United States Federal Government are under no such duress. Below are some links to information that can make a tremendous difference in your health and well being.
The WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION, a globally respected resource without financial ties to specific modalities of health care, has studied acupuncture, and made recommendations for treatment of many specific conditions and diseases. Please look for your own concerns online at the
World Health Organization website.
The American Academy of Medical Acupuncture has a comprehensive webpage containing the information from the United States’ National Institutes of Health’s National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) Information and Resources Package.There is a simple table containing their recommendations for appropriate treatment with acupuncture: Medical Acupuncture website
The US National Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health has a wonderful website that is used for medical and health research. NIH has underwritten many studies proving the benefits and efficacy of Chinese Medicine.

If you go to their website and search ACUPUNCTURE you will see there are over 17000 links to scientific published papers about the benefits of acupuncture in specific health concerns.
We found articles such as: “Auricular acpuncture reduces state anxiety before dental treatment- a randomised controlled study”, “Acupuncture for treatment of autism spectrum disorders”, “Acupuncture: gaining acceptance in urology: Proves effective for a number of chronic conditions”, and even one about Lou Gehrig’s disease- “Significant neurological improvement in two patients with amyotrophic sclerosis after 4 weeks of treatment with acupuncture”.
