Stop Smoking With Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine

Smoking not only costs money, it is anti-social and affects all organs of the body. Studies show that a smoker is easily prone to contracting a sore throat, skin rash, chest infection, etc. When pregnant smoking has been known to harm the fetus and medical research shows a higher risk of the baby being born premature or underweight.



Everyday 300 people die as direct results of smoking-the equivalent of a jumbo jet crashing 24 hours. As an average smoker the habit may cost you over 800 pounds a year, but nowadays more and more smokers know that they are harming themselves and that they should quip but the habit feels almost impossible to break.

Even for those who are determined to stop smoking, willpower alone may not be enough. All over the world people have tried different ways of giving up cigarettes - nicotine patches, hypnosis, sometimes they work and sometimes they don’t.

In China Acupuncture has been a tried and tested, proven way of healing addiction. It is an ancient system of medicine which restores balance and maintains health by the insertion of fine disposable painless needles into specific points on the surface of the body.

It can be used to treat many conditions including addictions, such as tobacco, alcohol, drugs, etc. Over the past 10 years we have treated many tobacco addicted patients whose smoking history varied from 2 – 40 years in our Care Cure Acupuncture clinics in Galway, Loughrea, Tuam, Longford and Dun Laoghaire. Among these patients a considerable amount stopped smoking after a course of 3-6 treatments. The amount of treatments they received depended on their cravings for nicotine and this depended on their lifestyle and how stressed they were. In China there is a 90% success rate for addiction therapy.

Acupuncture can rebalance the vital Qi energy which flows continuously through an energetic network of meridians that not only connects the acupuncture points to each other but also directly influences the functioning of the internal organs and other controlling systems of the body.

There are 14 channels and 361 points in total on the body and each point has a different function in the treatment of different problems. For Acupuncture used to treat nicotine addictions 6-7 points which connect to the lung meridians are usually chosen and this acts as a block for the addiction. Some people report decreased enjoyment of cigarettes after the treatment and even a sour and different taste in their mouth when they smoke. They also report a decreased desire to smoke. In our Care Cure clinics we also offer a Free No Obligation Consultation after which you can decide whether or not to go ahead with treatment. We also provide small beads which we can put on certain acupoints on the ear and these can control cravings by pressing them into your ear whenever you feel the desire to smoke.

Acupuncture is a relaxing healthy way to stop smoking – a path which aligns with the natural intelligence of your individual body system. And it works without side effects.

Eliminate Fibroids The Natural Way with Care Cure Acupuncture

The section below explains how the condition of the liver channel is connected with uterine fibroids.  Your liver regulates the blood in your body – in other words we say in Traditional Chinese Medicine theory that the liver has been given the function of storing blood in the body, regulating blood flow and preventing blood overflow.   I.               Storage of Blood Blood from the liver glorifies and nourishes the body’s meridians (channels which flow through the body) and it also nourishes your fingers/toes nails and eyes. If blood stored in your liver failed to nourish the meridians, it would result in symptoms including numbness, pins and needles, tendon twitch, muscle spasms, and convulse of limbs. Similarly if the eyes do not receive proper nourishment from the liver blood, patients will experience dry, sore eyes or even blurred vision. If your nails do not get enough blood supply, they will be...

Tongue Diagnosis in Care Cure Acupuncture Clinics

Image
When visiting our clinic for a consultation, you will be asked to stick out your tongue so our practitioner can diagnose your condition. This can seem like a very strange request, and you’re usually left to wonder what they saw there. This article helps clarify what your practitioner sees on your tongue by clearly explaining the basics of tongue analysis, and will also show you how you can use that information to make dietary choices to benefit your overall well-being. Basically, your tongue is a reflection of what’s happening inside your body. Natural medicine tries to find balance in your whole body. Along with your pulse and symptom presentation, your tongue is an easily accessible way to find out what your inner landscape looks like, and can help you know what will bring you further into, or out of balance. WHAT TO LOOK FOR Shape Is your tongue thin and pointy, or is it more thick and flabby with tooth-marks around the edges? Is it quivery? Is some of i...

Acupuncture and Herbs to treat Sinus Infections Sinusitis  or  sinus infection  is inflammation of the air cavities within the passages of the nose. Tiny holes that connect your nasal passages to your sinuses get blocked. It can be caused by a number of factors including colds and flu viruses, infection, polyps, allergies and irritants. If your sinuses can’t drain properly it causes inflammation and swelling around the nasal area. This can directly affect your breathing, cause pain, irritation, headaches and affect your day to day living. The combination of acupuncture and Chinese herbs is a highly effective way to treat both the symptoms and the root cause of your sinusitis. Our practitioners stimulate the small channels that connect the sinuses to the nasal passages. Stimulating these congestion points increases blood flow to your sinuses and loosens mucus . This allows the mucus to drain into the nose from the sinuses and allows air to flow into the...
