| Can Acupuncture Help You |
Acupuncture can effectively treat almost the entire spectrum of illness - physical, psychological, acute and chronic. It can work
alongside conventional treatments and many people have been helped by acupuncture when conventional medicine has been unsuccessful.
It can also treat symptoms that may not have a clear western medical diagnosis. The benefits of acupuncture treatment frequently
include more than just the relief of a particular condition. It is common for people find that they "feel better in themselves",
have improved appetite and sleep, increased energy levels, a sense of vitality and an enhanced sense of wellbeing.
The World Health Organisation considers treatment with acupuncture appropriate for a wide range of illnesses that encompass
respiratory problems, gastrointestinal problems, mouth problems, eye problems, neurological and musculoskeletal disorders.
