Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia text

In Western Medicine there is no cure for Fibromyalgia despite many women suffering from it. At our clinic we treat this syndrome daily with excellent results.

Within Chinese Medicine we see two causes for this condition. One cause is extremely bad blood circulation which is generally due to obesity ( “Obesity and Vascular Dysfunction” ).  An overweight patient will have a systematic lack of nutrient (Ying) and oxygen (Qi) circulating to the major muscle groups in the body and the sensory nerves that surround them. Chronic pain is the result unfortunately.

Chinese Herbal Medicine and Acupuncture seem to be vasodilating the major longitudinal blood vessels in the body which in turn gives more nutrients and oxygen to the undernourished muscle groups. This results in exceptional pain reduction in a short time period.

Malnourishment is also the second cause but from a different direction. Anemia and even borderline anemia can cause fibromyalgia. The anemia is actually a plasma anemia and Western Medicine does not recognize this. Often this type of patient is frail and thin, does not sleep well, is jittery and anxious and has dry skin accompanying the pain in their upper body. In this case, Chinese Herbal Medicine will look to reestablish the fluid deficit in the body and blood. An improvement in the fibromyalgia condition is a result.

COVID-19 PROTOCOL

Central New Jersey Acupuncture & Wellness Clinic will not be treating any known, or suspected, cases of Covid-19 in the office.  If you are sick, please wait for 2 weeks until you are symptom free before making an appointment.

If you have been exposed to someone with Covid-19 in the past 14 days, we will not be able to accept you as a patient at this time. If you have traveled outside of the US in the past 30 days we will not be able to accept you as a patient at this time.

Following are our new procedures:

  1. You will be pre-screened via phone prior to your appointment. 

  2. When you arrive at the office, please wait in your car and call the office. You will be told when it is safe to come in.

  3. Upon entering the office, you will be required to hand sanitize. We will do a quick temperature check, if you are over 100.4F, you will be asked to leave and call your doctor. Temperature checks will be done at each visit.

  4. All patients are required to wear a face covering of some kind the entire time you are in the office, for the duration of the treatment. We have masks available if you need one.

  5. You will be taken to the treatment room directly. No waiting in the waiting room.

  6. Follow up appointments can be scheduled prior to leaving the office.   You may also email info@cNJacu.com to set up your next appointment

Cleaning: 

  1. Tables are wiped down between treatments.

  2. High tough surfaces- door handles, light switches, call buttons, etc will be sanitized between patients

  3. Providers will wear masks and gloves while cleaning

  4. Alcohol based hand sanitizers are available in all rooms.

What we need from you:

  1. Please do not bring anyone with you to your appointment.

  2. Please DO NOT bring unnecessary items into the office with you, i.e., purses, bags, water bottles, iPads, etc..  The fewer items you have the less likely we will have any issues with contamination.

  3. Please DO NOT come to your appointment if you have, or have had, any cold or flu symptoms in the past 14 days, have traveled recently, or have any of the symptoms that are associated with Covid-19.   This applies if you have a household member with any symptoms.  We know that there are many silent carriers, but our goal is to minimize any exposure of known causes. Instead, call us to reschedule.

If you are uncomfortable coming to the office for any reason, we understand. 

If any of us tests positive for Covid-19, the office will be closed for 14 days, disinfected, and all patients who have been in 14 days prior will be notified.
