Skin Disease
The ability of acupuncture to regulate the immune system, enhance blood circulation and restore the body’s Qi ( energy flow) balance has led to its growing use as a complementary treatment for a variety of skin conditions. In TCM, skin disorders like excessive heat, dampness, or blood stagnation are frequently interpreted as symptoms of internal balance. Acupuncture and herbal medicine helps address these underlying issues and promotes skin healing.
