Support during other treatments

Acupuncture can support our bodies during other treatment protocols by optimizing qi, blood, yin, and yang balance, strength, and movement/flow. Oftentimes, when individuals are diagnosed with conditions/illnesses, the list of “to do’s” becomes overwhelming; the thought is that one must tackle one modality at a time; and perhaps, that doing too many things at once could cause interference as well.

As acupuncture does not add or take away substances from the body, nor does the energetic approach contraindicate medications, acupuncture can actually provide assistance in allowing the body to respond more effectively, to help minimize side effects, and allow more ease throughout a treatment protocol. Furthermore, acupuncture can support the body’s healing mechanisms in recovery following surgical procedures as well.

It is also important to have a discussion with your regular Practitioner about adding acupuncture into your health journey.
