Boost Immune System with Acupuncture
A Holistic Approach to Healthcare
Many of us are in search of ways to boost our immune systems, especially in times of heightened stress and disease outbreaks. The practice of acupuncture, gua sha, cupping, and moxibustion offer a holistic approach to improving one’s health and immunity. Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese practice that uses thin needles or applied pressure to certain points of the body to stimulate energy flow and restore balance. There is increasing evidence that Chinese medicine and acupuncture can be effective in treating immune system dysfunctions. Gua sha, cupping, and moxibustion is other classic TCM treatments that have been used for centuries to promote healthy blood circulation and stimulate the lymphatic system, both of which contribute to maintaining a strong immune system. Additionally, incorporating herbs into your diet is known to help fight off pathogens and when used correctly can make all the difference when it comes to boosting immunity. At Empire medicines, we use a combination of these methods to provide an invaluable way to strengthen your immune systems and stay healthy and energized!
