What evidence is there that acupuncture helps?
In this systematic review recent studies show that acupuncture can be utilised as a stand alone or complimentary treatment for chronic rhinosinusitis, with clinically significant improvement in quality of life scores and symptom picture. The study also noted the need for further rigorous, well designed trials to confirm these findings.
Acupuncture is cumulative, treatment and outcomes build over time.
When changes to lifestyle are made and treatments are taken regularly, the benefits of acupuncture are generally found over three to six months.
How does Chinese medicine view allergies?
In Chinese medicine, the immune system is derived from the combined health of the gut, and the genetic predisposition of the person.
The influence of the Spleen and Stomach energy systems (gut), and the Kidney and Lung energy systems (genetics) determine how our immune system responds to allergens or allergic substances in our environment.
An acupuncturist trained in Chinese medicine will assess if your diet is correct for your body type, if your wellbeing is protected through out the four seasons with traditional lifestyle advice and if mental emotional strain is managed well. Working with the immune system in this way alongside acupuncture treatment in clinic provides holistic ongoing symptom management.
