Skin / Hair

I developed a terrible case of shingles last year. The rash ran from back to front. It was burning, painful and very itchy. I was beside myself. I had been to Raleigh Acupuncture for knee pain and decided to call to see if they could help. Sure enough, they said come in immediately. I’m so glad that I did. I felt better after the first treatment. I ended up having about half a dozen treatments over the course of two weeks. They completely resolved my shingles. I strongly suggest you try acupuncture for shingles. It works amazingly.

I’ve had eczema all my adult life and had resigned myself to managing it with steroid creams. I would have done this forever had my father-in-law not suggested that acupuncture could help. I was quite skeptical, knowing how stubborn this skin condition was. I have seen close to a dozen dermatologists over the years, and none of them have ever been able to do anything more than prescribe steroids. Over the counter creams never worked for me.

Pardon the long introduction, but I wanted you to know my situation. That’s why I was surprised and more than pleased to see my eczema improve substantially after receiving acupuncture treatment. After two treatments my then current flare settled down. With continued treatment my chronic patches started to recede. Itching was substantially reduced as well. I now receive what they call maintenance treatment for my eczema, which I will happily do each month.

I researched all of the top acupuncture practices in Raleigh before selecting Raleigh Acupuncture. The doctors there were thoughtful, knowledgeable, and well versed in treating eczema. They delivered on what they promised, to control and substantially resolve my eczema. I highly recommend them.

I had been getting botox injections for my face over the past five years, and it worked well.  But a friend said that acupuncture could get more lasting results in a more natural way.  I inquired at Raleigh Acupuncture and was surprised at how affordable it was.  They explained that as an added bonus, I would receive acupuncture to help other issues at the same time that they treated my face.  So I took the opportunity to deal with some arthritis in my hands and a bad knee.  The facial rejuvenation was amazing.  It happens over the course of 12 weeks and I literally saw wrinkles disappear!  After each treatment I felt so relaxed.  I’m hooked on acupuncture now, both for my face and the rest of me.  The staff at Raleigh Acupuncture are very professional, friendly and skilled.  I felt safe and comfortable during each visit.
