Can Acupuncture Be Effective Where Other Treatments Have Failed?
Yes! For many it is the “last resort”. Conventional medicine is very effective in suppressing symptoms, such as pain, but often does not address the root cause. During your first office visit, the practitioner will ask you at length about your health condition, lifestyle, and behavior. The practitioner will want to obtain a complete picture of your treatment needs and behaviors that may contribute to your condition. Please inform the acupuncturist about all treatments or medications you are taking and all medical conditions you have.
