As a holistic medicine, acupuncture stimulates natural healing abilities.
There is a bit of confusion when thinking acupuncture claims to cure many different health problems. It’s inaccurate to think acupuncture claims to cure anything. Acupuncture is a therapy that stimulates the body’s natural ability to heal.
The body has the ability to heal itself. Imbalances and weakness in the body can obstruct these natural healing abilities. Acupuncture is a therapy that stimulates the body’s innate healing abilities in order to restore balance and rejuvenate health naturally.
It’s important to note many conventional medicines also don’t cure and often only mask the underlying root cause of the problem. A medicine that requires a lifetime of use does not provide a cure.
Also remember that acupuncture is one tool of many under the scope of Traditional Oriental Medicine (T.O.M.). Some complicated health issues need a comprehensive approach using other adjunct T.O.M. therapies such as diet therapy, lifestyle changes, herbal medicine, supplement support, exercise, weight management and stress management to untangle such complexities.
Emphasis in treatment should initially be placed on supporting 4 major health supporting fundamentals which include sleep, diet/digestion, exercise, and stress management before a clear understanding of the root cause can be realized. Chasing symptoms without correcting fundamental imbalances will lead to a prolonged treatment and poor outcomes. Check this article called – Stop Symptom Chasing.
All patients are offered a comprehensive evaluation on their initial visit to the clinic including the evaluation of these important fundamentals. Continued evaluation is ongoing for each and every treatment to monitor progress. This is called a holistic and natural approach to medicine to encourage natural healing and optimal health.
