Conditions

These are but a few of the conditions treated by Lekha using various techniques including acupuncture, acupressure, cupping therapy, laser or Qigong pressure point therapy.


Anxiety and Depression

Acupuncture is very effective in restoring a calm state of mind.  When acupuncture needles are inserted into specific points, it has an immediate, regulatory effect on the nerve system.  It stimulates the parasympathetic nerve system to slow down the heart rate and relax the mind.


Back Pain

Pain is a very common problem that is treated by acupuncture with a very high success rate. It is extremely effective in addressing back pain caused by disc irregularities, stenosis, neck and shoulder problems,  poor posture, sciatica, post-surgery recovery and joint disorders.


Sports Injury

Traditional Chinese Medicine and acupuncture are commonly used to treat sports-related injuries.  They are effective in reducing pain, they enhance recovery time, they prevent injury, improve range of motion and flexibility, improve performance and improve concentration while reducing performance anxiety.


Immune System/Allergies

Acupuncture is unique in that it boosts the immune cells themselves to result in a more effective and long-lasting remedy for immune issues. It reduces the symptoms, speeds up the healing process, and regulates the immune response system.

For patients who have mild allergy symptoms or whose allergies are primarily seasonal, acupuncture has been shown to reduce their symptoms. 


Facial Rejuvenation

Acupuncture stimulates the muscles beneath the face to improve their tone.  Most people see a significant improvement in radiance. Some other common benefits of facial rejuvenation acupuncture include smoother skin and better sculpted facial muscles.

Acupuncture can also help with facial pain, and is used to treat Trigeminal Neuralgia, a type of nerve pain or neuropathy that affects the nerves in the face.  Facial paralysis can result from nerve damage due to trauma or disease, such as stroke, brain tumor or Bell's palsy.  Acupuncture can be effective in treating various facial anomalies.



Foot/Ankle Disorders

Studies have shown that acupuncture can be helpful in treating many forms of foot pain associated with the ankle, heel and the ball of the foot.  It is effectively used to treat Plantar Faciitis, heel pain, heel spurs, and ankle sprains.
