Treating Pain

Pain is one of the most common symptoms people come into the clinic for.
Back pain, headaches, menstrual cramps, any type of pain is addressed with acupuncture and herbs because all pain, no matter where or 'how' it happened can be treated.

All pain is considered stagnation.

The qi and blood arent flowing properly, perhaps because of an injury, which stopped the flow, thus creating a blockage, or there isnt enough qi and blood to flow properly, instead of a river, there is a stream that doesnt move through the c hannels with enough gusto, and the slowing of the movement creates a blockage, a stagnation.

So we figure out which of these issues your pain can be attributed to and either help remove the blockage from the river, or help build the stream into a river so that it can move freer and faster on its own! Make sense?

Relief is often felt with the first treatment, but it make take a few sessions to really remove that blockage fully, and building a river often takes even more time.

The point is though, its treatable. We dont have to be in pain or constantly taking pain medications. They are band-aids. An amazing part of this medicine is that it solves the root of the problem (there is a huge tree in the river) while addressing the symptoms (the pain)..
