Acupuncture Works for Tremors condition!

Image
Know anyone who suffers from tremors ? My patients' hand shakes if she picks up a pen to write, never mind if she actually attempts to write! This definitely interferes with quality of life! One scalp acupuncture session on a Friday, kept the tremors at bay until Monday. Her followup was Wed. and Fri. Today, she said she was able to put on her eye liner! Ok, now that's a priority!  Yes, acupuncture works! Acupuncture works to strengthen our immune system to help us naturally resist illness and pain. At Open Windows 2 Wellness Acupuncture our highly trained and compassionate practitioners understand the importance of individualized health care. 4 Tranquility Street Brantford, Ontario N3R 3H7 Telephone: (519) 754.8759 http://www.openw2w.com/

Alternative Treatment Options For Allergies & Asthma

Image
Do you suffer from allergies or asthma?  Open Windows 2 Wellness & Brantford Acupuncture Clinic have several alternative choices for you!  It’s a little-known fact that these two conditions are directly linked to each other. Asthma, which affects roughly one in 12 people according to the CDC, is characterized by spasms of the small airways and inflammation. Furthermore, about 90% of children under the age of 16 with asthma have allergies, while 70% of people between the ages of 16 and 30 have allergies, and 50% of adults over the age of 40 have allergies. Unfortunately, most people who suffer from allergies and asthma simply mask their symptoms with drugs rather than seeking a treatment for the root cause. Both of these conditions involve an overreactions by the body’s immune system to what it believes is a foreign invader. When you are exposed to an allergen (e.g. ragweed, pet dander, etc.) your immune system produces an abundance of inflammatory hormones which subsequently ca

Arthritis is a painful and oftentimes debilitating condition that's characterized by inflammation within one or more joints. Open Windows 2 Wellness & Brantford Acupuncture Clinic support several alternative approaches to help you get your life back! According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 1 in 2 people will develop osteoarthritis of the knee by the age of 85. It's important to note, however, that there are several different types of arthritis, with osteoarthritis being just one. Other common types include rheumatoid arthritis, gout, septic arthritis, Still's disease, and ankylosing spondylitis. While most people living with moderate-to-severe arthritis resort to prescription medication to mask their symptoms, a safer and more effective form of treatment may come in the form of a 2,000-plus-year-old Chinese practice called acupuncture. Numerous studies have found acupuncture to offer relief of many different types of arthritis. And best

Spring and Traditional Chinese Medicine

Image
With the official start of spring just months away, there’s no better time than now to consider using popular forms of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). As mother nature comes out of its state of dormancy, flowers will begin to blossom, trees will develop leaves, and the snow-capped landscape will be replaced with flowing green grass. This massive change comes with some unwelcome  side effects than TCM may prove useful in treating. Here are some tips to keep your Qi moving: • Limit (or eliminate) your intake of processed foods. • Eat more fresh vegetables and fruit. • Start your mornings off with a light stretching exercise like yoga or tai qi. • The warm weather offers the perfect opportunity to get outdoors and exercise. • Consume sour food and drinks. According to TCM, sour flavors stimulate the liver’s Qi. • Seek acupuncture treatments. There are over 2,000 acupuncture points spread across 20 meridians, but none hold as much weight for the spring season as the Liv
