Shingles

It is important to take antiviral medication for shingles. Dermatologists and physicians can prescribe them immediately, so be sure to take them properly.

However, there are cases of shingles that are not easily cured by medication alone. Shingles occurs because the body’s resistance is weakened, and acupuncture and moxibustion are used to restore the body’s resistance. When shingles heals slowly and the pain does not subside even with medication, acupuncture and moxibustion can be used to quickly improve shingles.

Shingles is a disease with scary aftereffects. Let’s make a move so that the symptoms will not be prolonged.

 

Cystitis

Cystitis tends to occur after childbirth, illness, surgery, or menopause, but most cases can be cured with medication. Many of them can be cured with medication. We have patients who have repeated cystitis even after taking medication, cystitis without bacteria, and overactive bladder.

Acupuncture helps to improve kidney and bladder function, and helps the body to become resistant to the bacteria that cause cystitis.

A body with cystitis is cold, has poor water metabolism, and shows low resistance to bacteria. After acupuncture, you can feel changes such as the disappearance of residual urine and the feeling of a firm urine flow when you go to the toilet, which feels good.

 

Epression

Depression may not always be apparent at first glance, but the depression, suffering, and sadness of the depressed person is serious. Depressed people have various symptoms in their bodies, such as a fever in the head, cold and swollen all over the body, severely stagnant gastrointestinal condition....

Acupuncture and moxibustion relieve these reactions in the body and restore the body’s natural state.

Acupuncture and moxibustion will lead you to a body that allows you to lead a normal life. Acupuncture is also used to reduce medication for depression.

 

Dysautonomia, Orthostatic dysregulation

Disturbances of the autonomic nervous system can cause a variety of symptoms, including hyperhidrosis, palpitations, insomnia, headache, dizziness, bloating, emotional anxiety, and irritability. The skin is tense in this condition, and shallow and gentle acupuncture is used.

Orthostatic dysregulation is a type of autonomic dysregulation that is more prevalent during adolescence, around junior high school age. This is also treated with shallow and gentle acupuncture, similar to dysautonomia.

Over the course of the treatment, skin tension is eased and the patient’s physical condition improves.

Post-illness and post-operative adhesions

After illness or surgery, many people are in poor physical condition and suffer from symptoms such as surgical scar cramps, gastrointestinal problems, stiffness, cystitis, loss of appetite, and insomnia, and wonder how they can regain their physical condition and take back their daily life.

Acupuncture and moxibustion can help the body regain its strength after illness or surgery.

When there is adhesion on the surgical scar, moxibustion is used to relieve the pain and cramps of the scar caused by the adhesion.

After receiving acupuncture and moxibustion, your body will start to move naturally, and you may find that you are able to get back to your daily life.

 

Long-covid19

All those who said, “I can’t get rid of the corona,” and who had not yet visited the outpatient clinic for posterior sequelae, but who could not get rid of their cold symptoms and fatigue, have all improved.

Those who were diagnosed with corona aftereffects and came for acupuncture are still living their lives while receiving acupuncture. There is not much information on acupuncture and moxibustion regarding posterior corona sequelae, so I attend study sessions to collect data.

Those who come to our clinic with corona aftereffects receive acupuncture for different reasons, such as feeling better for some days after acupuncture. Some people improve over time.
