Why individualized medicine matters
Treating headaches and migraines with acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine is inherently individualized based on the traditional methods utilized to establish a unique pattern diagnosis and thus an appropriate treatment plan.
While there’s typically only a few treatment options available for headache and migraine sufferers in Western medicine, treating naturally with TCM takes a systemic approach to focus on the underlying cause. Headaches are a signal from your body that something is off, and through a detailed full body analysis, you’ll receive a customized plan that allows for sustained relief.
The goal in individualized medicine is full body support and long lasting symptom relief, while avoiding any bandaid approaches.
Your journey to wellness is as unique as you are.
Our four pillars of holistic treatment include powerful, all natural therapies, and we work with you to find the best combination suitable to your unique condition.
