Thyroid and Endocrine Disorders 

Why am I so tired all the time? Why do I eat sugar all day? Why do I have no energy and I’m so fatigued?”

Using acupuncture and Chinese medicine for thyroid disorders and other endocrine disorders is not a new idea. Although lab tests of thyroid function only go back a few decades, traditional Chinese physicians understood the signs and symptoms that we now know can be caused by thyroid disorders. For centuries, they used acupuncture and Chinese medicine for thyroid treatment, based on traditional methods of diagnosis. We can bring that ancient knowledge and experience into modern-day treatment of thyroid disorders and diabetes, expanding the treatment options available. Acupuncture and Chinese medicine can help support thyroid health and prevent illness, as well as assist in healing a poorly functioning thyroid.  Common symptoms patients seek relief from are 

• Chronic Fatigue
• Diabetes
• Hypoglycemia
• Thyroid Disease
• Depression / Anxiety
• Insomnia
• Headaches
• PMS
• Dry Skin
• Food and/or Inhalant Allergies
• Food Cravings
• Weight Gain
• Chronic Pain / Inflammation
• Alcohol Intolerance
• Allergies​

• Weakness
• Sensitivity to Cold/Heat
• Hair Loss
• Indigestion
• Poor Memory
• Difficulty in Concentrating
• Frustration
• Alternating Diarrhea and Constipation
• Osteoporosis
• Lightheadedness
• Palpitations
• Dizziness
• Apprehension
• Low Blood Pressure
• High Blood Pressure

Individuals who are suffering from these related symptoms often fall through the cracks of the conventional medical system receiving medications which give only partial relieve or none at all. The answer for a lot of these people lies in a simple imbalance of endocrine hormones and neurotransmitters.
