What is acupuncture?
Chinese acupuncture is four to five thousand years old. It is the
insertion of needles just under the skin. The needles are only as thick as
three or four pieces of hair. Most people find acupuncture very relaxing and
that it does not hurt. It can remove negative emotions, addictions, stress,
body soreness or pain, and almost any disorder or problem that upsets the
vitality in the body.
What is the process for acupuncture?
When you come in for your first treatment, Michael will have you fill
out several health forms. He will then go over them with you to know how to
treat you. He will most likely be treating you for several ailments at a time. Michael
will give you a gown to put on, and the treatment will start on the back of
your body. He will insert the needles into various acupuncture points, which
are helpful to your specific needs. You will then relax for about twenty
minutes while listening to very relaxing music. Michael repeats the process on
the front of your body.
What can it help?
Acupuncture can be a beneficial treatment for many health conditions,
including addictions. It can help ease cravings, reduce stress, and detoxify
the liver. After only a few treatments, most clients report better sleep and a
more stable and positive emotional state. There is a standard protocol
treatment for addiction that is personalized with specific acupuncture points
to help every organ and system for that individual. Addictions can include but
not be limited to drugs, alcohol, tobacco products, caffeine, and food
addictions (sugar, chocolate, and carbohydrates).
Treatments for allergies have both long and short-term results. Treatments can
immediately decongest the sinuses while reducing or eliminating your reactions
to the allergen over time.
Today, many people suffer from body pain from sports injuries, car accidents,
arthritis, fibromyalgia, etc. Michael uses the 8 Principle acupuncture, which
uses symptomatic treatments to reduce physical pain or eliminate it. Most
illnesses do have symptomatic treatments or recipes of points, which are used
in combination to help treat making disease symptoms better. Acupuncture is
treating the whole person to a deeper level so that the symptoms go away and
the subtle causes of these symptoms.
Most patients who have acupuncture treatments continuously improve with no ill
side effects. Acupuncture is also an excellent treatment for people with
negative emotions, anger, and grief problems. There are specific treatment protocols
for many emotional states, including fears and phobias. Many people claim that
their stress level drops, and they sleep better after only a few treatments.
