Obama Supports Acupuncture


While it may come as a surprise to you, it is no secret that Oriental medicine is the most widely used form of medicine in the world.

No, I'm not kidding.

Acupuncture is everywhere and people keep coming back for more.

The United States, notoriously behind in the health care business, is going to start loving it and using it more and more too.

Don't believe me?

Check out Obama voicing his support:

Acupuncture For Menopause


If you're always the person in the room telling all the ladies how fabulous you feel and how menopause has been a breeze, then you can stop reading this post right now because everyone is jealous and you don't need this info.

But

If menopause is an issue for you, then you may be able to find some relief that doesn't involve taking Prempro or some other medication for ever and ever.

In my clinic, I'm seeing menopause success stories weekly. No more soaking your pjs, opening the windows on a winter's day or calling your son by the dog's name (well, I guess we all have slip ups from time to time though, with or without menopause).

Lest you think I am making this up, there are actually clinical trials out there touting the efficacy of acupuncture. Check it out:

Induce Labor Naturally


It can be rough at the very end of pregnancy... I know 2 weeks before my due date I would have ripped all of my hair out if someone told me it would induce labor.

Fortunately, there's an easier, painless and natural way to do it, ladies.

Acupuncture.

Seriously. It's been raining babies over here at St John Acupuncture.

Whether you've gone over your due date or your OB or healthcare practitioner has a reason for you to go into labor a little earlier Acupuncture is for you.

It's safe and it works like a charm. Plus, it can help you avoid Pitocin and some the of chain of events that can follow during labor.

So if you're ready to burst, definitely give me a call.
