Acupuncture

Chronic Pain

Acupuncture often provides fast relief of chronic pain by opening the blocked meridians and moving the stagnated flow of qi and blood.

Acupuncture also stimulates the production of endorphins, the chemicals produced naturally by the nervous system to cope with pain or stress.

Sports Injury

Acupuncture treatment helps relieve pain and facilitates the recovery of sports injuries, such as muscle sprain, ligament tears, and bone fractures.

It also helps boost tissue repair and speed up rehabilitation by improving blood circulation and reducing inflammation.

Stress & Anxiety

Acupuncture treatment melts away physical and mental stress by relaxing muscles, moving the qi and blood, and stimulating the production of calming neurotransmitters.

Acupuncture effectively removes the obstruction of energy channels caused by emotional distress and makes one feel relaxed.

Digestive Disorders

Chinese medicine has long recognized that the health of the digestive organs affects the body and brain systematically. The gallbladder, stomach, spleen, and intestine connect with the brain through the blood vessels, nerve systems, and energetic channels known as meridians.

Women’s Health

Women experience dramatic hormonal changes and energy depletion due to menstruation, giving birth, and responsibilities at work and home.

Yang Institute’s experts help women restore lost energy, regain balance and maintain mental and physical wellness.

Cancer Care

Chemotherapy and radiation further deplete and disturb one’s flow of energy. Yang Institute’s specialists use acupuncture to help elevate symptoms such as pain, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, insomnia, and anxiety.

Lyme Disease

Lyme disease, if not diagnosed and treated timely, could evolve into a chronic condition that may affect many aspects of the patients’ health.

While the use of antibiotics is debated in the medical community, acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine continue to be effective in relieving the symptoms, improving the immune system, and restoring the patients’ mental and physical functions.

Infertility

Acupuncture helps regulate patients’ hormonal systems, modulate their immune function and improve blood circulation and the flow of qi energy.

It helps increase the success rate of natural conception and assists fertility treatments such as IVF.

Healthy Aging

Aging is the result of increasingly depleted Qi, life’s vital energies, in the heart, lungs, spleen, and kidneys. Yang Institute’s Health Aging Program combines acupuncture with Chinese herbal remedies and Qi Gong to replenish the loss of qi energy and promote healthy aging.

Face Rejuvenation

Yang Institute’s Facial Rejuvenation Program applies facial acupuncture techniques to promote collagen production as well as energy and blood circulation in the face.

It helps increase muscle tone, the skin elasticity and restores radiance and vitality in a safe, natural, non-surgical, and non-invasive way.

Obesity

Clinical observation and experimental research found that acupuncture can be a helpful complementary method for weight loss. Acupuncture helps weight control because it helps increase metabolism, reduce appetite, and lower stress which usually leads to excessive eating.

Smoking Cessation

According to the studies published on the NIH’s PucMed.gov, acupuncture may affect smokers by reducing their taste of tobacco and their desire to smoke.

Yang Institute’s Smoking Cessation Program combines acupuncture with auricular acupuncture and herbal medicine to help patients reduce or quit smoking.
