Acupuncture For Kids

I found this great video about acupuncture for kids. It's nice to see the children talking about their experiences. We treat many children here at FirstHealth using acupuncture as well as Shonishin which is a no-needle acupuncture treatment.... we've even seen babies only a few weeks old! Check out the video I hope you like it.

Acupuncture Eases Hot Flashes in Cancer Patients

It's great to see articles like this one http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE6074EM20100108 appearing in the mainstream press. The research study showed that acupuncture was as effective as Effexor in reducing hot flashes in women with cancer. The great thing about the study is that those receiving acupuncture had just as much benefit with only one side effect... an increased sex drive!
