How Can Acupuncture Help Me?

Acupuncture can help you in many ways, mentally, emotionally and physically. It can help specific health concerns, and it can help you feel better overall. It helps your body balance naturally, that’s why it can help so many different health concerns. It harnesses the natural healing ability of your body and directs the healing with needles. Here are just a few things that can be helped with Acupuncture:

1. Relieve Stress

Acupuncture can help us shed stress quickly. It helps shift our bodies and minds into a healing state where balance can be restored. While many patients experience immediate relief, with ongoing treatment, they report feeling better able to deal with ongoing stress in their lives. Things that used to stress them out, are handled with greater ease. They often report being calm in the face of circumstance that would have caused them distress.

2. Relieve Anxiety

Acupuncture is so good for anxiety. This is one of the treatments I personally love to offer, as patients are often amazed at how good they feel after treatment. By balancing the body, anxiety fades away. Oftentimes, one to two treatments can greatly relieve symptoms and help one feel more grounded and calm. If ongoing treatment is needed, the anxiety levels fade even further over time.

3. Relieve Pain

Many people know about Acupuncture for the treatment of pain. It helps by interrupting the patterns causing pain, and helping blood circulation in the area to reduce inflammation and speed healing. Sometimes pain fades with one treatment and it doesn’t return, but oftentimes, ongoing treatment is needed to be pain free. By continuing treatment until pain levels are zero, patients can recover from patterns of acute or chronic pain.

4. Relieve Digestive Concerns

Digestive troubles respond well to Acupuncture treatments. Heartburn, indigestion, constipation, diarrhea, stomach pain, irritable bowel syndrome, ulcerative colitis and many other digestive concerns can be helped with treatment. Helping patients reduce and eliminate the need for medications is rewarding. Digestion is the foundation for our health, and improving our ability to digest and absorb nutrients can improve our health and prevent many other health issues.

Acupuncture can treat many other health concerns. It treats the whole body naturally, so when one area of concern is addressed, oftentimes, other areas will improve. If you’re looking for help with your health, you might find great relief with Acupuncture. If you live in the San Jose, CA area, I can help you. If you live out of the San Francisco Bay area, contact me, and I can refer you to a practitioner in your area.

Springtime Allergy Relief...Literally, a Phone Call Away!

Yeah, Spring is officially here! Longer days, blossoms everywhere, beautiful. But with Spring, unfortunately comes Allergies (for a lot of people). But it doesn't have to be this way! You can be free of your allergies to trees, grasses, pollens, etc. How would it feel to be free of your allergies this season?

There are holistic solutions for your allergies that could allow you or your child to be free of the need for medications, shots or other treatments. The treatments I offer are gentle, highly effective, non-invasive and can be done over the phone. They are so simple, my youngest patient (four years old) did a treatment while sitting on her Mom's lap over videophone! They are so powerful, that lasting change can be made in one treatment.

Why is Holistic Allergy Relief Important?

Allergies cause needless suffering and take a toll on your health and your finances, especially if you're taking medications. As you may know, sometimes medications:

1. Aren't always enough to control symptoms
2. Can cause many unwanted side effects
3. Don't solve the underlying problem
4. Don't bring true and lasting relief
   
5. Are expensive financially
6. Can take a toll on your body

Plus, allergies can limit your activities and your life. If you suffer, you don't need me to tell you this. If your child suffers, I'm sure you don't need convincing about the impact.

As I was walking at the Farmer's Market in Campbell, and I saw a man wearing a surgical mask. I assumed he was trying to protect himself from allergens and this makes me want to help! Many of my patients know I have allergy solutions, but there are so many other people that suffer that could be free of them.

Thereofore, I am offering $35.00 off ($115.00 total) an allergy relief sesssion until 4/15/10 (sessions normally $150.00).

Here's a Testimonial from Spring 2009:

"I have had allergies my entire life. I was allergic to trees and grass. It was a big struggle for me when the allergy season hit. I tried everything from shots, pills etc...Nothing worked. I hired Kara over the phone (Acupressure) to see what she could do. After one session, my allergies are gone! It is amazing. I wish I knew about Kara years ago. Thank you Kara! You are the best!"

Once the allergy is addressed, treatments don't usually need to be repeated for the same allergen. So, if you do a session this Spring, you'll not only enjoy this season, but next Spring, you can welcome the fresh air wholeheartedly!

If you or someone you love suffers from allergies, please call me, I can help you. You can also book an appointment online.

Please note: This solution is most helpful when symptoms are severe and you're aware of your allergen(s). If you're allergic to many allergens and your immune system is weak, you may also benefit from Acupuncture. For more information, click here.

 Greetings and Happy New Year!

I wish you all the best for your Health and Happiness in the New Year! I'm feeling like 2010 is going to be a great year, how about you?

I have a new location in Los Gatos, CA. I'm excited about serving more patients in the South Bay and beyond for Acupuncture, Food Cravings, Allergy and Trauma Relief. I'll be offering New Patient specials in the month of January, including this one for Acupuncture:

$75.00 off an Initial Visit for Acupuncture (normally $125.00), you only pay $50.00 for the Initial Exam. Book your appt online before 1/15/10 to enjoy this special price.

I also just bought a beautiful new La-Z-Boy chair yesterday, that will be soooo comfortable for my Acupressure patients. I'm also going to use it for patients receiving Acupuncture too as it's VERY comfortable and relaxing for receiving needles. This will also allow me to offer sessions for couples in the same treatment room at a reduced rate. I'm excited about all of this and I can't wait to get started.

So make an appt in the New Year and get your year started off on a healthy note and save money. Put your Health and Happiness first and relax in my new La-Z-Boy chair.

Yours in Health,

Kara Sorensen, MS, LAc
