Fibromyalgia & Chronic Fatigue: A Drug-Free (Natural) Approach in Houston

The big question here is, "Why aren't my joints and muscles healing and repairing?" or "Why is my body not willing to allocate nutrients toward energy and joint and muscle repair?". Do you think your body has more important things to do with those nutrients? Maybe there is some more important internal function that needs the extra nutrients right now and the body is not going to waste those valuable nutrients on non-essential tissue. Yes, you read correctly. Your joints, muscles and energy level are non-essential to the body. Your body needs to make sure your brain, heart and liver function, kidney function, immune system, etc are optimized and as a result of significant problems to these areas, it will break down your muscles, bones and joints to free up nutrients and protein to be used for more important bodily function! So, if you're not getting the nutrients your body needs from your diet, guess what's going to happen! But, how do you know which nutrients you're deficient in?
We understand that the key to overcoming Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome lies in the testing. Proper testing will identify major and minor key elements of imbalance and deficiency, environmental toxicities, stress and physical structure, abnormal organ functions, digestive disorders, and much more. Through careful examination and analysis, and by addressing these conditions, we can help you know what lifestyle changes you need to make in order for your body to heal itself and restore your health.

What is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture is inserting and manipulating filiform needles into designated points on the body to restore health and treat pain and disease. Acupuncture has been practiced in the USA for more than 150 years but it was not until President Nixon returned from his trip to China in the 70's that there was a boom in popularity. In 1971, New York Times political analyst, James Reston had an appendectomy in Beijing using ONLY acupuncture for anesthesia and to reduce pain post surgically with moxa (Chinese herb often burned over specific needle points or on top of the needle).
After this phase of the consultation is completed, treatment can begin that same day or be scheduled for a future visit. Typical treatment protocols will include the use of traditional Acupuncture body points including but not limited to auriculo (ear) or even scalp points. Duration of an average treatment usually lasts approximately 20 minutes.
