Can acupuncture help in treating diabetes?
Diabetes is not a disease that responds readily to acupuncture in my experience. However, some forms of diabetes do respond well to Chinese herbal therapy. Diabetes is broken into 3 types in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), and your provider will ask you the "Bigs" to determine your type; that is, big thirst, big hunger, big urination. You may be one or a combination. From there, a proper herbal formula will be developed for your case. Travis Buckmaster, L.Ac., PC READ MORE
