Brrrrh! It’s cold outside! Getting better with acupuncture and the Winter Cold/ Flu

Oh no! You’re sick! Your immune system wasn’t strong enough to fight off the bacteria or virus that made you sick. What do you do now?

Acupuncture and Chinese herbs can have a tremendous impact on treating colds, coughs, and fevers. Symptoms ease and go away, energy is improved, and breathing is better with acupuncture.

Cough
One patient called with a terrible hacking cough that kept her from sleeping through the night. Her cold had morphed into a cough that was not clearing up. A custom herbal formula was prepared for her. Her sleep was fine after that, and within a couple of days, her cough was gone.

Head Cold
Another patient came in with a scratchy throat, head congestion, and general malaise. Acupuncture cleared up his scratchy throat and congestion. He took home some herbs to take for 3 days, and reported later that his cold never developed.

If you are feeling the beginnings of getting sick, try acupuncture. If you are sick, try acupuncture. You deserve to enjoy the cooler weather and only cuddle beneath a warm comforter because you want to, not because you need to.
