Acupuncture is a safe, drug free method to successfully treat many condititons. People can often become used to suffering from conditions that they do not have to but have given up hope on being able to treat. One of the great benefits of the traditional Chinese diagnostic system is that it is able to identify causitive factors for many disorders that Western medicine cannot identify the root cause of (such as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Irritable Bowel Syndrome etc). In combination with using both traditional and modern diagnostic methods the results can be far superior to either method on it’s own.
Excellent results are also achieved using acupuncture as a health maintenance/preventitive medicine tool. The clinician is able to identify areas in the patient’s body that could lead to potential problems further down the road and deal with them before they become an issue. As we all know prevention is the best form of medicine
