Chinese medicine addresses the underlying cause of Fibromyalgia by using our Chinese medicine diagnostic tools. Our treatment consists of Acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, and a series of breath work exercises to modulate different organs and improve your symptoms.
Our approach regulates the immune system to fight hidden infections, improves gut microbiome (which will improve the fibro fog), decrease pain signals, improves microcirculation throughout the body, balance hormones, and decrease inflammation.
Treatment of Fibromyalgia will go through a series of phases in our straightforward protocol to better help manage symptoms and reduce the amount of flare ups.

Our goal is to reduce the frequency, intensity, and duration of your symptoms.
As with all conditions there are many co factors involved such as the duration of onset. On average, the number of acupuncture treatments range from 10-30 treatments weekly or bi-weekly for the condition to resolve.
