Respiratory Conditions

Acupuncture and Chinese medicine have a long history of success in strengthening the body's immune system and overall function, and effectively treating conditions from common cold and cough, to sinusitis, allergies, and asthma. From the perspective of Chinese medical thought, various respiratory symptoms are viewed not just as manifestations of energetic imbalances, but rather as a systemic issue. Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine strengthen the respiratory, adrenal, and immune systems, helping manage acute manifestations and treat chronic respiratory conditions, while at the same time balancing and supporting the vital function of the body as a whole.

In many incidents of respiratory symptoms Western medicine resorts to over-the-counter medications that address symptoms so that we may continue our daily routines, but it can often take about two weeks or longer for a cold or seasonal attack to resolve completely. Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine work wonders for both prevention and treatment of recurrent colds, flu, and seasonal allergies and can also help you to recover from them quickly and easily.
