Does Acupuncture Hurt?

At our CNY Healing Arts Centers in Syracuse, Rochester and Albany, NY we perform acupuncture to treat many different health issues from infertility, sinus pressure, smoking cessation, migraines, arthritis and more. Clients sometimes come to us with different levels of anxiety regarding the needles used during acupuncture. Some have a lifelong fear of needles while others are just nervous about whether it will hurt.

Now that’s a logical fear, right? Will the needles hurt? We are taking a needle and inserting it into your skin in many different locations. Seems logical that it may hurt. The truth is most people who have had acupuncture describe it as virtually painless or far less painful than, for example, plucking out a hair. The sensations that follow needle insertion can range from nothing at all, to mild tingling, to slight numbness/achiness, to electrical pulsations in areas distant from the site of insertion. These subside once the needles are removed.

The size of the needle is part of the reason that some people think the acupuncture treatment will hurt. Most people who are having a treatment for the first time don’t realize how small the needles actually are. The needles used for acupuncture are much smaller than the standard hypodermic needle. They don’t draw blood and are solid, not hollow.

We want to dissuade your fear of acupuncture and the needles that are used. Please don’t hesitate to call us and ask for more information. We have several acupuncturists waiting to assist you at all of our locations. We hope you will allow us to aide you on your path to better health and wellness by utilizing acupuncture.

Video: Acupuncture for Fertility Demonstration

Hi!  My name is Lisa Stack, and I’m the CNY Fertility Support Coordinator.  Today, Donald is going to walk us through an example of acupuncture for fertility session.  Now, we will show you exactly what you can expect, so you can take a look and see what you’re in for.  If you have any questions after this, please feel free to email Donald himself or you can post a comment, and we’ll get back to you.

Donald: Good afternoon everybody.  I’m just going to take this time to give you a nice example how acupuncture would go for your first appointment or for follow-up for people who have had acupuncture, you understand how it goes and what’s involved.  For people that have yet to have it, this will be a nice introduction as to what to expect.  What I’m going to do is treat the client here for fertility issues; mainly stress reduction, as well as to build lining and increase blood flow to the ovaries.  All that is beneficial for follicular development, lining issues, and general health.  So, how are you feeling today?  Is there anything that’s troubling you?

Client:  I’m a little tense.

Donald:  You’re a little tense?  OK.  From what I remembered from the last time that we spoke, you were having some constipation issues.  That is really common with a lot of medications.  If it’s OK with you, I’d like to continue with you treating moving bowels.

Client:  Yes, sure.

Donald: Oh, that’s wonderful.  So you’ll notice that we’re going to do some points in the abdomen.  These points are geared towards moving bowels and increasing blood flow to the ovaries and to the uterus.  We’re also going to move to the brow, and to the ears.  These points help relax clients, they also slow the brain wavelengths so that your brain is functioning a little bit calmer, and the body tends to settle as well.  We’re going to do a couple points on the wrists, points here on the wrists help to open and dilate blood vessels; they also help to calm the mind, which is very good.  We’re also going to do some points down on the lower leg.  These are the points that help strengthen blood and they help strengthen and process the developing blood, OK?  Do you have any questions?

Client:  No.

Donald:  All of the needles that we use are pre-packaged and disposable.  Nothing is reused, they’re all very safe.  We use a very high quality Japanese needle.  It’s very common for people to often say that they haven’t even felt the needles go in, which is a nice aspect.  Once we start the needle manipulation that kind of determines how much you feel and how much you don’t feel.  Today, we’re going to take it easy on you—you’re very healthy.

Client:  OK.

Donald:  I’m going to step around.  Needle insertion and angle are very important in the process when treating with acupuncture.  You can stimulate a point or you can take the energy away from a point.  It truly depends on the condition.  How are you feeling?

Client:  Good.

Donald:  Good.  Now, we’re going to move to the head.  Sometimes the points up by the brow area can be used for sinuses and sinus pressure which also results in a lot of headaches.  So, often times we’ll treat patients and they’ll find that conditions that they have other than their chief complaint ease as well which is a wonderful thing, a wonderful side effect of acupuncture is stress reduction and the treatment of secondary conditions.  Are you comfortable?

Client:  Yes.

Donald:  Is there anything that I can do to make you more comfortable?

Client:  No.

Donald:  Does anything hurt?

Client:  No.

Donald:  You’re OK?  The last thing that we’re going to do is we’re going to add some heat method/heat treatment.  We use simple heat lamps.  It helps circulate blood so it’ll help keep you a little bit warmer, OK?  Now, this whole treatment will last about 30-40 minutes depending on your comfort and your time schedule.  Is there anything that I can do to make you more comfortable?

Client:  No, it’s really good.

Donald:  What I’m going to do now is I’m going to add some music.  OK?

Video: Donor Egg Process – Acupuncture & Herbs

Donald Clarke, Acupuncturist at CNY Healing Arts Centers, shares information on how herbs and acupuncture can benefit a donor and also a recipient going through the Donor Egg Process. Read more about the donor egg process here.

 

Acupuncture for the Immune System

The oldest known medical book to date was written around 4000 years ago in China. This book describes the use of acupuncture to treat a wide range of medical issues. From there, knowledge of the treatment’s benefits spread across Asia – reaching Europe by the 1700s. Only in the last 200 years has acupuncture been medically prevalent in the United States.

Despite this short period of relevance, we have a good understanding of what happens when a person undergoes acupuncture. In a nutshell, treatment may cause physical responses in nerve cells, the pituitary gland, and parts of the brain. These responses can then cause the body to release hormones, brain chemicals, and proteins that collectively govern a number of its functions: balancing blood pressure and body temperature, strengthening the immune system, and relieving pain.

These advantages of acupuncture are much of the reason why the treatment is often recommended to those fighting cancer. Moreover, we can all benefit from a natural immune boost, cancer or not. You see, when we build up the body’s natural defenses, it is significantly less likely that hostile organisms (like viruses or bacteria) will be able to take over. If our bodies fail to protect us, we get sick.

Acupuncture cannot cure a weak immune system; only you can take control of your health by choosing to exercise, eat right, get enough sleep, and be emotionally healthy. Acupuncture can complement and support your body when restoring it to good health. Treatment works to revitalize you – down to the very cells that make up your body.

To make an appointment for either consultation or treatment, contact us.

Acupuncture for Allergies

Each year, almost $6 billion are spent on medications for the treatment of allergies, with another $300 million spent on office visits. In America, an estimated 50 million people suffer from a variety of allergies. In each case, a person’s allergies are specific to certain allergens. An allergen is a substance that can cause an allergic reaction, where the body may identify it as foreign or dangerous.

So, what is an allergy you ask? An allergy is defined as your immune system’s exaggerated reaction to substances that are generally not harmful. Your immune system is usually pretty good at distinguishing between the good stuff and bad stuff in your body, but in a person with allergies, the immune response is oversensitive. When it recognizes an allergen, it releases chemicals to fight it off. This is what causes the symptoms of an allergic reaction: itching, swelling, hives, rashes, mucus production, muscles spasms, and more.

Acupuncture is an incredibly helpful treatment for allergies, sometimes curing it altogether. In Chinese medicine, allergies are said to be caused by an “invasion of wind cold.” Treatment is aimed at dispersing “wind” and nourishing the immune system. In western medicine, acupuncture is known to balance the unconscious responses of the nervous system, thereby decreasing the body’s reactivity to allergens. In effect, acupuncture improves the body’s natural healing mechanisms.

After treatment, patients often feel calmer, can sleep better, and withstand illness more easily. This is probably due to the fact that acupuncture significantly decreases stress levels. Furthermore, the ancient Chinese thought that acupuncture could improve life span. Since we know that stress increases cell deterioration, it is possible that acupuncture does fight aging and help us live longer.

If you’re interested in acupuncture to treat your allergies, please call the location nearest you.

Acupuncture to Relieve and Prevent Migraines

When you have a migraine, it can make even the simplest tasks impossible. The worst part: it can hit you at any time.  Migraines can occur at any age, but patients typically experience more severe symptoms between the ages of 10 and 30 years old. Women tend to have more than men and their symptoms often correlate with their menstrual cycles.

During a migraine, patients can experience a variety of symptoms, most commonly including dizzy spells, blind spots, throbbing headaches, nausea, sensitivity to light, and blurred vision. If you suffer from migraines, you have the option to treat them with either conventional medicine or with more holistic methods. Acupuncture is an alternate, comprehensive approach to the treatment of migraines.

What is it all about?

Acupuncture is the practice of inserting thin needles into specific points along the body to improve health and well-being. It originated in China more than 2,000 years ago and is based on the foundation of Oriental medicine: that there is a life energy flowing through the body called Qi (pronounced chee). Qi travels through the body on meridians, or channels, which connect all our major organs. According to Chinese medicine, illness arises when the cyclic flow of Qi becomes unbalanced. Acupuncture is meant to restore this balance of body and mind.

When receiving acupuncture treatment for migraines, the needles will generally be placed in a person’s arms, legs, shoulders, and sometimes even the big toes. An estimated 2 million adults in the US use acupuncture each year.

How does acupuncture work to treat migraines?

There are several theories about how acupuncture works to relieve pain caused by migraines, but one factor always rings true: acupuncture can offer powerful relief without the side effects that prescription and over-the-counter drugs can cause. Some people believe that it is not the technique of acupuncture that helps relieve pain, rather a patient’s belief in the effects of the process, also known as the placebo effect.

Another idea is based on the gateway theory, which states that the body can only experience so many sensations at once. According to this theory, when the body reaches sensory overload, it will simply reject some of the sensations. This claim is supported by the natural reaction of rubbing an injury to make the pain go away. By concentrating on the slight pain of the needle, your brain may reject the pain signals of a headache.

Aside from theories, there are compelling physiological reasons why acupuncture works for migraines:

• It stimulates the release of neurotransmitters, which relax the body and decrease painful sensations.
• It works to regulate pain centers of the brain. In one study, an MRI scan of the brain of a patient with pain from carpel tunnel syndrome showed that the acupuncture had changed the way the brain perceived pain.
• It relaxes the muscles. This breaks the cycle of tension and pain when you have a migraine. The muscles tense up in reaction to the pain, then the pain causes the muscles to tense up more.
• It calms the mind and encourages balance in your life, increasing your ability to deal with stress. Many people fall asleep during treatment while in deep relaxation.

Is there anything I should be afraid of?

If you have a fear of needles, acupuncture can sound like a nightmare rather than a relaxing treatment. We assure you that the needles used during treatment are never used twice and are hair-thin, sterile, and generally painless. They hurt much less than an injection or blood sampling because the point is smooth, not hollow with cutting edges like a hypodermic needle.

If you have any questions or concerns about the treatment, a consultation can be arranged to address them. Each acupuncture treatment is carefully customized based on the patient’s needs, so a fear of needles is a definite factor. Please call the CNY Healing Arts location that is nearest to you.

The Natural Medicine Cabinet: Preparing for Cold and Flu Season

As the days grow shorter and colder many of us often find ourselves surrounded by potential exposure to colds and flu. There are many things that we can do to prevent getting sick and there are many things that we can do to shorten the length of an illness and provide symptom relief once a pesky cold has taken up residence in our bodies.

• Water – For prevention of illness, keeping hydrated is a must. Drinking sufficient water allows for the proper flow and function of your primary elimination pathways. Oftentimes, increasing fluids helps to ease constipation and allow toxins to move out through your digestive tract. Sweating, vomiting and diarrhea can all be present with illness and this can easily lead to dehydration. When dehydrated, our bodies are impaired and will have greater difficulty winning the fight against an illness and then repairing and returning to a feeling of “normal” after the acute stage of illness passes.
• Probiotics – Probiotics are the healthy bacteria that live in your digestive tract. Their presence allows for better digestion and they play an important role in immunity. In fact, studies have shown that those taking therapeutic doses of probiotics experience at least 50% fewer colds and the duration of illness, when it occurs, is less. There are many different strains of probiotics. And, probiotics are found in foods such as yogurt and kefir. But, supplementing with a multi-strain probiotic (meaning something that contains more than just acidophilus) at this time of year can only be a benefit. There are a great many choices available now for probiotics and some do need to be kept refrigerated to ensure the presence of live bacteria. However, these days there are many that do not require refrigeration so check labels carefully to make sure that it is kept in the fridge if needed to ensure proper potency. Additionally, if we do find ourselves sick and antibiotics are taken, we can use probiotics to lessen the side-effects of the antibiotics, re-establish healthy intestinal flora and make sure yeast infections do not occur. I often recommend at least doubling the therapeutic dose (what it says to take on the bottle) during your course of antibiotics and for two weeks after finishing taking them. Once feeling well, it is appropriate to lower the dose back to therapeutic levels.
• Vitamin D3 – This vitamin has been getting a lot of press lately for many reasons. We actually do produce our own D3. It is called the sunshine vitamin because we make it when our bodies are exposed to sunlight. However, it is felt that we do not produce adequate amounts, particularly during fall and winter when there is more darkness than daylight. D3 is also essential for proper assimilation of dietary calcium. Its role in immunity has been studied in both adults and children. Vitamin D3 seems to have a particularly positive effect in the prevention and treatment of respiratory illnesses. For the winter months, 5000 IU daily is recommended for adults and children can take between 1000 and 2000 IU daily. Of course, Vitamin D levels can be checked by blood test and your doctor may recommend a different dosage. If levels are low, it will often take 5 or 6 months for improvements to be seen in blood work.
• Plenty of rest – Because we live highly stressful lives, often the only times our bodies are able to repair and regenerate is while we sleep. So, it is particularly important that we get adequate rest this time of year. And, if we do find ourselves sick, taking a day or two off and spending more time on the couch or in bed will allow our bodies the ability to regenerate and have us feeling better more quickly.
• Keep the sugar intake low – With the holidays upon us, one of the most difficult things to avoid this time of year is sugar. But, sugar has been shown to significantly reduce our immunity for up to 8 hours after its consumption. Of course, enjoy your holidays and indulge in moderation. But, if you feel a cold coming on, it is probably best to avoid sugar for the duration of the illness.
• Herbs – There are a great many herbs that can help to prevent illness or assist in shortening the duration of illness. One formula, carried at all CNY Healing locations, called Yin Qiao San, is a staple among acupuncturists during cold and flu season. We use this formula at the first signs of cold and flu to stop the illness before it starts or to greatly shorten the duration of the illness. Yin Qiao San treats the sore throats, headaches, body aches and fevers often seen with colds or with the flu. It is advised to consult with a properly trained herbalist before taking this formula as in some people it can cause digestive upset and it is best not to use it if pregnant or trying to become pregnant.
• Acupuncture and Massage – Acupuncture and massage can both be used for prevention of illness. By keeping lymph and blood circulating properly and by keeping your energy in balance your body will less likely be affected when presented by a potential infection. Additionally, acupuncture can be used to help alleviate symptoms of colds and flu by helping with headaches, sinus congestion, sore throats, digestive upset, etc. Acupuncture and massage sessions are offered seven days a week in most CNY Healing Arts locations and convenient evening hours are also available.
• Exercise – Keeping your body moving with exercise is also important this time of year for many reasons. With shorter days, many of us want to hibernate and with this we often see a drop in energy. Exercise will keep energy levels up during the day and improve quality of sleep at night. The better we are able to sleep, the stronger our bodies will be and better able to fight infections. Also, regular exercise keeps lymph and energy circulating and improves bowel function, thus we are better able to excrete pathogens once they show up in our systems. Yoga is a great way to gently improve energy levels and circulation and its stress relieving properties often allow for better sleep. CNY Healing Arts offers many yoga classes at an array of times to fit within your schedule.

While most of us dread getting colds or the flu this time of year it is important to remember that there are a great many options for prevention and for easing symptoms and shortening the duration of an illness. And, the staff at CNY Healing Arts is always available to answer any questions you might have regarding your particular health needs.

Acupuncture: Calm, De-stress, Lighten the Load

While I was visiting a friend today I noticed a picture she had on her wall by Diego Rivera. In it a man was hunched down, what was seen of his face looked like he was strained by the normalcy of work; he was carrying a large basket of beautiful white lilies on his back.  From this painting I gathered a metaphor of life having that same sense of burden.  At times something so inherently beautiful can seem like a heavy load.  This is a perfectly normal and human experience. Fortunately there are many tools available to ease the burdens, some of which are created by our stagnant thoughts and emotions and some through illness.

One of the tools available at CNY Healing Arts is acupuncture.  One of the benefits of acupuncture is its ability to create space for the client.  When life is overwhelming acupuncture can be a valuable treatment option.  It calms the mind and eases the stress we feel in the body.  The treatments allow you to release the sense of angst, fear and despair.

Along with easing the discomforts generated by stress and difficulty, acupuncture provides many physiological benefits.  The stimulation of acupuncture points has been shown to regulate blood circulation, which aids in the recovery from injury, chronic pain, surgery, and provides more efficient blood flow to the ovaries and uterus.

Supported by studies, acupuncture has been shown to regulate the hormones including FSH, LH, estrogen and testosterone.  A review of research from 1970 to 2009 advocated the use of acupuncture for PCOS on the grounds that it can increase blood flow to the reproductive organs, reduce ovarian cysts, increase insulin sensitivity, decrease blood glucose and insulin levels, and reduce cortisol and assist in weight loss.

Science is demonstrating that acupuncture, like life, is full of possibility.

Caffeine and Fertility

Studies have shown a decrease in fertility when more than 300mg of caffeine is consumed daily.  This means that a cup or two of strongly brewed dark roast coffee each day should not hurt your chances of becoming pregnant. But, there are other factors to consider and having the knowledge of how caffeine affects your body’s systems can help you decide whether a daily pick-me-up of coffee or tea is right for you or whether it should be avoided when trying to conceive.

Caffeine affects levels of certain adrenal hormones and neurotransmitters. This allows for the spike in energy after consumption but it can also trigger a dip in energy as the caffeine leaves your system, making one feel even more tired or sluggish than before having the cup of coffee or tea. Because these hormones have an effect on moods, those suffering from anxiety and depression might want to skip the associated highs and lows.

Caffeine affects the absorption of certain nutrients. The absorption of iron, vitamin A and certain B vitamins has been shown to be inhibited when caffeine is present in the system. All of these nutrients are essential for fertility and for maintaining a healthy pregnancy. The half-life of caffeine in the body is between four and six hours. Thus, caffeine should be avoided before and after taking vitamins or supplements. And, those who have a tendency toward anemia should very much consider avoiding an excess of caffeine.

Caffeine functions as a diuretic. Coffee and tea cause more frequent urination. This loss of fluid can lead to an electrolyte imbalance. It is essential when consuming caffeine to increase water intake to maintain proper fluid and electrolyte levels in the cells so that they can function properly.

Caffeine can maintain high blood sugar levels in those with diabetes or those who have insulin resistance. Clinical studies have shown an increase in the amount of time it takes for blood sugar levels to stabilize when caffeine is consumed in those who already have difficulty maintaining healthy blood sugar balance. So, those that do have this difficulty should not pair coffee with dessert.

The following table shows the approximate amount of caffeine found in different beverages and in chocolate.  Caffeine amounts can depend of several factors. With coffee, lighter roasts have more caffeine than darker roasts. Herbal teas do not generally have caffeine. There are many teas available now that are blends of herbal teas and green or white teas. These will have less caffeine per serving than a straight green or white tea. And, medicinal teas are generally just herbal and do not have caffeine.

Product and Approximate Amount of Caffeine per serving
(8oz, unless otherwise noted)

• Coffee = 115 mg
• Espresso = 100 mg per 2 ounce serving
• Black Tea = 40 mg
• Green Tea = 20 mg
• White Tea = 15 mg
• Cola = 30 mg
• Commercial Energy Drink = 80 mg per can
• Dark Chocolate = >5 mg per ounce
• Milk Chocolate = <5 mg per ounce

Lastly, coffee, tea and chocolate all have healthful properties as well. As with anything, balance and moderation is the key. You can easily glean the antioxidant benefits of a cup of green tea without overdoing the caffeine. If you enjoy coffee for coffee’s sake but do not want the effects of the caffeine, you can choose a decaffeinated brew that uses the Swiss water method versus a chemical decaffeination process. And, it is best to pick organic when choosing coffees and teas to avoid chemicals used in growth and processing and allow for a healthier you and a healthier planet.

Holistic Treatment of PCOS

Two of the biggest barriers to fertility are high stress levels and an unhealthy diet.  This is especially true for those women who have been diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, or PCOS.

Although the exact cause of PCOS is unknown, women with PCOS tend to have sustained, abnormally high activity of the sympathetic nervous system and tend to be insulin resistant. At CNY Healing Arts, we offer acupuncture, massage, herbs and supplements that when combined with lifestyle changes such as relaxation practices, a healthy diet and regular exercise help to regulate both sympathetic nervous system activities and blood sugar levels.

The sympathetic nervous system has many functions but is best known as being responsible for our stress response, our “fight or flight” mode, where blood flow is diverted to skeletal muscles and lungs to allow for quick response to a perceived threat. With this, blood flow is shifted away from other systems deemed unnecessary at the time, including our digestive, reproductive and immune systems. Also, the rush of adrenaline from the adrenal glands signals the body to release glucose into the bloodstream to allow for a quick supply of energy. The sympathetic nervous system, once activated, is slow to deactivate and return control of bodily systems to the parasympathetic system which operates under the familiar adage, “rest and digest.” In women with PCOS, chronically high blood levels of stress hormones cause imbalances of reproductive system hormones, or sex hormones, where excessive androgens are produced, most often cited is testosterone, and production of LH and FSH is stunted such that the ovaries do not produce mature eggs appropriately and multiple cysts result. The presence of these cysts leads to a failure of the release of mature follicles from the ovaries, or anovulation. With a lack of ovulation comes amenorrhea, or a failure to menstruate. Additionally, the constant presence of high levels of glucose in the bloodstream leads to insulin resistance as the cells’ receptors to insulin become desensitized as more and more insulin is released from the pancreas in an attempt to lower blood sugar levels by ushering glucose into cells for storage.

Infertility is common in women with PCOS due to a lack of ovulation, irregular menstrual cycles, and insulin resistance that often leads to weight gain. A Swedish study published in 2009 found that acupuncture reduced the stress response brought about by chronically triggered sympathetic nervous system activity and allowed the body to more easily remain in a state of relaxation. Reducing the chronic stress response leads to lower blood sugar levels and decreases insulin resistance which often allows for weight loss.

PCOS, in Chinese medicine, is often seen as a pattern that includes Kidney deficiency with blood and qi stagnation and excessive dampness. Those with a Kidney deficiency may experience fatigue and low back and/or knee pain. Qi and blood stagnation can be caused by stress and can lead to irregular menstruation and irritability. Excessive dampness is indicated by the presence of cysts and increased body weight. The herbal formula Feminine Care 2, carried at all CNY Healing Arts centers, treats this presentation and can be an important part of a treatment plan for correcting the imbalances seen with PCOS. Additionally, supplements such as zinc and Chasteberry (Vitex agnus-castus) can help to regulate reproductive hormone levels and encourage ovulation.

A holistic approach to the treatment of PCOS and its resultant infertility may include several therapies. At CNY Healing Arts, we offer many different services allowing you the tools to create a customized plan perfect for your particular healing and wellness needs. Acupuncture, massage, herbs and supplements can help to de-stress and regulate menstrual cycles. Nutritional counseling can help to outline a low-glycemic diet plan that will allow for more balanced blood sugar levels. Yoga classes offer the dual benefits of exercise and relaxation. And, support groups and counseling offer tools to deal with the emotional stressors involved in the struggle of infertility.

If you would like to learn more about the holistic approach to treating PCOS at CNY Healing Arts, please do not hesitate to call or set up a consult with one of our practitioners. And, as always, please speak with a trained herbalist before beginning any herbal or supplement regimen to avoid side effects and potential interactions with fertility medications.
