Sinus Infection
Chronic Sinus infections are a very common condition in the Pacific Northwest. Typically associated with allergies, chronic sinus infections can be successfully resolved through a combination of Acupuncture and herbal medicines. The sinus is ruled by the Lung system in traditional Chinese medicine and is often associated with a Lung Qi deficiency pattern. By strengthening the Lung Qi and treating the the sinuses directly with facial acupuncture points we can often get an immediate relief of symptoms. Longer lasting resolution of the conditions sometimes requires herbal remedies such as Pekana’s Pro-Aller and Ricura combination to drain the sinus and treat allergies. And dietary recommendations such avoiding diary and wheat will often bring a 50% improvement in the condition.
