Neurological Conditions
The symptoms of neurological conditions vary and can include intense pain, tingling, numbness, burning, freezing or tightening; irregular sweating, vision problems, dizziness upon standing, fatigue, constipation, intolerance to neuropathic bladder, sexual dysfunction; muscle twitching, weakness, paralysis and atrophy.
Acupuncture can dramatically help neurological conditions. It can:
- Activate your self-healing capacity, regulate and restore the natural balance of health
- Trigger the body to produce endorphins, serotonin, adenosine and endogenous opioids --- the body’s natural pain-relieving chemicals
- Affect the neurotropic factor signalling system, which is important in the control of neuropathic pain
- Raise the pain and sensory thresholds and reduce the perception of pain and other abnormal sensations
- Regulate the autonomic nervous system, hormone and neuropeptide release, adjust vasoconstrictors and vasodilators and lessen attacks of pain
- Release vascular and immune-modulatory factors, reduce inflammation and improve the immune system
- Enhance local microcirculation, improve the nerve cells' metabolism, promote nerve repair and regeneration and rebuild new nerve pathway
With over 27 years acupuncture experience, I select the most appropriate acu-points related to your symptoms and condition. After insertion, a special electromagnetic spectrum healing lamp (TDP) is incorporated to assist the needles in activating the acu-points. My clients are very satisfied with the treatment.
