Conditions Treated
What can you treat with acupuncture, moxibustion, and herbal medicine?
The short answer is lots of things!
The longer answer is that Chinese and East Asian Medicine (CEAM) is an observational science that has been practiced for thousands of years. It is a pattern based medicine, which means we partner to identify the underlying pattern causing your symptoms. Two people with the same condition may have different patterns, and therefore may respond well to two completely different treatments.
Let's face it, your goal is to improve how you feel! Below are lists of conditions commonly treated with CEAM. Yes! I've helped people with most of conditions listed on this page.
