4 Reasons to Try Oriental Medicine

Let’s face it, our healthcare system sucks. We pay too much for care that is often impersonal and ineffective. Insurance is a maze that creates more stress than well-being.

Oriental medicine offers an alternative option for your family’s health. Here’s four great reasons why you should choose Oriental Medicine for Your family’s health.

1.  It Works –

For acute and chronic conditions, patients young and old, scientific research is beginning to prove what millions of patients and OM practitioners have known for thousands of years: It works! 

In recent years, studies including clinical trials have lead leading health organizations to recognize the effectiveness of OM treatments such as acupuncture, moxibustion and herbal remedies.  OM is finally gaining the outstanding reputation it’s had for millennia in the East throughout the rest of the world.

2.  It’s Safe –

Oriental Medicine is a natural modality that enhances the body’s innate healing abilities resulting in:

• Less Side Effects-  Unlike all pharmaceuticals, Chinese herbs, acupuncture and other OM treatments do not involve side effects uncomfortable or dangerous side effects. Side effects are an indication that medications are disrupting the way the body is functioning. OM treatments work to restore balance and harmony within the body rather than cause disruptions.
• Little Risk-  OM treatments are so safe, most practitioners pay approximately $50 a month for malpractice insurance versus Western doctors who spend an average of $1000 monthly for coverage. Herbal treatments, acupuncture and other OM treatments involve virtually no risk or potential safety hazard when administered by skilled practitioners.

3.  It will Save you $$! –

OM is a preventative medicine that addresses the whole person and aims to treat the root cause of illnesses, not just symptoms. Preventative medicine, though seemingly costly on the outset, prevents chronic illnesses that will cost infinitely more in treatment with medications, surgeries, and procedures.

As an example, investing $20 in high quality fish oil can help prevent heart disease, promote heart health and treat depression, among many other health benefits. Compared to the actual cost of taking high blood pressure medication or antidepressants long term, investing in high quality fish oil is a bargain!

4.  It Improves Quality of Life –

One of the best results of individualized and preventative care of Oriental medicine is improved quality of life. OM often involves lifestyle recommendations that not only promote good health, but improve how you look, feel and function in your daily life.

A healthier diet, regular exercise, and stress management can improve your mood, help you sleep better and promote weight loss. You’ll have more energy for activities you enjoy. You’ll feel more relaxed and less stressed out, and relationships with family and friends will improve, too. The same thing happens when treating or managing health conditions doesn’t involve side effects, discomfort or stress.

Just knowing you have responsibility for and power over your own health can improve your quality of life as well.
