Men Enjoy
the Benefits of
Acupuncture
How can
acupuncture help
stress, depression,
and anxiety?
Rather than masking symptoms,
acupuncture helps the body heal itself.
In Oriental medicine, all dis-ease is
due to vital energy (qi) that is either
deficient or excessive in various places
in the body. Sounds simple, but it’s
not. Most people have combinations of
both excess and deficient energy manifesting in a variety of ways. This is why
you need to seek out a fully educated
acupuncturist who has a master’s or
doctorate degree in Chinese medicine
– someone who can truly understand
and customize your acupuncture treatment.
When the trained acupuncturist
inserts a needle, he/she stimulates the
body to transport its healing fluids and
its vital energy so the patient moves
into a more harmonious state. Your
practitioner may also recommend
dietary changes or a Chinese herbal
formula to increase the effectiveness of
the acupuncture.
Most men don’t pay attention to
their prostate gland until they have
problems such as frequent, painful or
nighttime urination and/or dribbling
urine. Leading national and international health organizations recommend
acupuncture as an effective treatment.
In younger, asymptomatic men, acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine
can also be used preventatively. We
can proactively prevent both prostatitis
as well as enlargement of the prostate
(BPH).
cine; however, a trained practitioner
may also inquire about palpitations,
the color of your urine, a heavy feeling
in the scrotum and your thirst levels to
determine if the heart, spleen or liver
meridians (energy pathways) are also
involved. FYI, many of the medications
currently used for ED can potentially
exacerbate the problem by creating
medication dependencies. Getting to
the underlying imbalances of ED may
start making a lot more sense when all
this is considered.
What about male
infertility?
Acupuncture and Chinese herbal
medicine are also useful for correcting
imbalances related to male infertility,
such as low sperm count, poor sperm
motility/morphology and premature
ejaculation.
