Denver Acupuncture: The Element Center

Acupuncture

Traditional acupuncture, rooted in nature and the five elements, functions on the level of the body, mind and spirit. Acupuncture effectively treats a variety of health concerns. Many people who have experienced acupuncture report that they:

  • Are sick less often and recover more quickly
  • Experience significant improvement or complete disappearance of symptoms
  • Have increased vitality and stamina
  • Spend less money for long-term health care costs
  • Have more harmonious relationships with others
  • Learn how to care for themselves

The World Health Organization recognizes Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine in the treatment of over 50 common diseases including:

  • headaches
  • allergies
  • back pain
  • chronic fatigue
  • infertility
  • digestive
  • ailments
  • common cold
  • eye disorders
  • addictions
  • gynecological conditions
  • stress
  • hypertension
  • joint pain
  • asthma
  • chronic illness
  • insomnia

However, you need not have any symptoms present to benefit from acupuncture. You can also prevent illness, experience greater well-being and improve your current state of health through treatment.

A recent survey of acupuncture patients by Dr. Claire Cassidy indicates that they saw their physicians less frequently and were using fewer medications. In addition, over two-thirds of those surveyed reported avoiding recommended surgeries.
