Acupuncture and moxibustion for the treatment of all kinds of pain
Update: 2022-04-14
Description
In this episode, we continue the conversation with Todd Garrity, LAc, this time discussing how he approaches pain relief in his acupuncture practice.
While most people know that acupuncture can treat pain, there is a lot more to it than sticking needles into painful muscles. In particular, Todd's use of the Korean Hand Therapy system presents an alternative approach, which we discuss here as well as in videos on our Youtube channel.
Don't forget to leave us questions, topics and feedback on the podcast page of our website!
During this short discussion we touch on a variety of interesting topics including:
- What sorts of pain acupuncture can treat
- How an acupuncture microsystem works to treat pain
- The role of burning mugwort - moxibustion - in treatment of pain
