Is acupuncture effective in treating blood related problems like anemia?
Acupuncture is part of a system of Traditional Chinese medicine that looks at the person as a whole and tries to help the body get back to optimal balance. Some of the treatment protocols are designed to help the person adjust the root causes and branch symptoms together, and this works well with traditional pharmaceutical treatments the person may be working with from other physicians. It is a more "Team Mom" approach. READ MORE
