(National Institutes of Health) have shown that acupuncture and moxibustion.

Restless Legs Syndrome
Report
CORRECTION (8/29/07): In this story, an opinion was incorrectly attributed to medical blogger Kevin Pho. Pho had blogged about the syndrome, but he was referring to another blog and the opinion stated in the Camera article was not his own. It's like being trapped under water, he says. Even with the most powerful motivation to hold your breath - life or death - at some point, you consciously decide you cannot do it any longer.
The Clinic
Report
The primary goal of this clinic is to treat you, and not just your disorder. Often a patient comes to me with a specific complaint such as shoulder pain, and after treatment, the person finds that other aspects of their health have improved as well.
I've found that if a person is properly treated, not only does their pain disappear, but sleep deepens, digestion improves, pounds are shed, the skin becomes clearer and smooth-textured, bowels and blood pressure are regulated, and an overall vitality returns.After treatment, my patients often find they can breathe more deeply and are better able to handle life's daily stresses.

Pain Relief
Report
When we place extremely fine needles painlessly in the body, we activate the body's innate healing abilities. Acupuncture theory views pain as a form of stagnation or blockage within the body. Blockages or stagnation can occur anywhere in the body. Let's think of the acupuncture meridians or pathways as a series of canals criss-crossing the whole body.
Menstrual and Menopausal Health
Report
Naturally, since 80% of the patients we treat here in the clinic are women, they often seek help with gynecological issues. Whether you have P.M.S.; painful or irregular cycles; or excessive bleeding; acupuncture usually rectifies these issues within approximately three months of treatment. For women who are perimenopausal or in menopause, we can help you take control of your health.
Insomnia
Report
Whether or not you suffer from a sleep disorder, patients say that acupuncture improves the quality of their sleep. Studies show the average person living in the U.S. is in sleep debt an hour or more each night. Heart disease, diabetes, depression and cognitive disorders have all been linked to a lack of shut-eye.
