Informações:

Synopsis

Elizabeth Fellowes, acupuncturist and owner of Center Point Healing in College Park, Md,, discusses the role of acupuncture and traditional Chinese herbal medicine in the management of infertility, fibroids, menopause and dysmenorrhea (menstrual pain). Many of the patients at Center Point Healing seek out acupuncture on the basis of referrals from friends, family and coworkers, instead of waiting for a referral from their allopathic physician. As more and more allopathic physicians learn about the benefits of Chinese herbal medicine and acupuncture, this complementary medicine will become part of a integrated health care team that draws from the experiences of health care practitioners from across the globe.
