Wellness & Preventative Care
Chinese medicine is founded on the premise that preventative care before the onset of a disease is more effective than treating a disease in its more advanced states.
Acupuncture has been shown to regulate the body’s immune function and treat underlying dysfunction that, if left untreated, eventually turns into diseases. It works by reducing any symptoms, speeding up the healing process, and modulating the body’s own natural immune response.
Acupuncture has been shown to work by stimulating the immune system through selected acupuncture points which enhance the body’s T and killer cells, which actively destroy infected cells and signal other immune cells to participate in the immune response. Chinese medicine has also been found to reduce inflammation, which can profoundly impact health and the body’s ability to fight disease.Using acupuncture therapy and herbal and dietary intervention as preventative care can go a long way in ensuring that the body’s immune response to disease is robust.
