Immune System Boosting

Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine can be very beneficial in strengthening the immune system and helping to prevent disease.

Acupuncture has been shown to increase white blood count (the cells that fight disease) and help fight of colds and flu.

Mark – Always Sick in Winter

I came to see Neil  in the winter of 2007 as I was sick of always being sick. Every winter I would catch a cold or flu and never seem to fully get rid of it until winter had gone. I didn’t want to take the flu shot as I wasn’t happy with possible reactions to it, so I decided to give acupuncture a go. I had 1 treatment a week for around 6 weeks and ever since I have a monthly maintenance treatment to keep my immune system strong. I can say I haven’t had a cold since, if I feel one coming on I quickly get a treatment and take some herbs and it just doesn’t happen.
