While the common cold and flu is actually not a season, we have become programmed to think of it as the months of October through March. We can avoid the cold/flu by implementing healthy habits and taking care of ourselves throughout the year. The best way to treat a disease is prevention. Traditional Chinese Medicine helps prevent cold/flu for the entire family. Regular acupuncture treatments help boost immunity, while balancing and regulating the body’s Qi (Energy). Acupuncture can reduce the incidence of upper respiratory tract infections and shorten the length of time that somebody is ill. If you’re already sick, help is available.
