Acupuncture to Treat Headaches and Cardiovascular Health

Dr. Nia’s true specialty lies in treating headaches and cardiovascular diseases. She has completed and mastered the additional courses to become certified in the treatment of both of these critical diseases. Dr. Nia is an expert in working with the best cardiologists and neurologists to create a unique treatment plan for each patient including treatments both before and after major surgeries.


Physical and Emotional Pain

Dr. Nia’s passion and expertise over the past 25 years has been in pain management. Acupuncture can significantly improve both physical and emotional pain. We work with patients that have exhausted all types of Western Medicine procedures who are now desperate to find relief with Eastern Medicine. Dr. Nia has worked with patients referred from orthopedic surgeons, chiropractors, neurologists and even psychiatrists. Dr. Nia also specializes in post-traumatic injury. We sometimes put more emphasis on physical pain symptoms, but our office specializes in treating emotional pain as well, which many of the times is a main contributor to the physical aspect of pain Acupuncture has shown improvement (and even eradicated) in depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress and memory-loss.

Acupuncture and Rehabilitation

Dr. Nia is certified in the Acupuncture Orthopedics Program (2004) allowing her to work closely with some of the top orthopedic physicians and surgeons in the surrounding area to help patients in chronic pain or recovering from traumatic injuries that have outweighed most of their available western medicine options for improvement. She has worked with professional athletes who need to recover quickly and correctly in order to continue their profession without taking off too much time leading to muscle atrophy. Dr. Nia also accepts patients fresh out of surgery to promote recovery.

Acupuncture and Infertility

For thousands of years (way before Western Medicine fertility practices), acupuncture has been used as an effective treatment for infertility. Research from Cornell Medical Center (NY) has supported that acupuncture increases blood flow to the uterus, aiding in implantation of an ovum in the uterine wall and normalize the hormone and endocrine systems (including the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis) resulting in regulation of ovulation, the menstrual cycle and other hormones associated with fertility. Acupuncture has been shown to greatly improve the chances of successful IVF and other reproductive techniques in a safe way. In Chinese Medicine, infertility is caused by the imbalance of Qi and blood in one or more of the following: 1) Kidney Organ System which is responsible for the release of an ovum 2) Spleen Organ System which supplies the necessary blood to sustain a pregnancy and normal menstrual cycle and 3) Liver Organ System that facilitates the uninterrupted flow of Qi and blood, while also preventing anxiety and depression (Acupuncture MediaWorks 2012).

In Traditional Chinese Medicine balance of energy creates an atmosphere for optimal health and ideal weight. The Mei Zen Acupuncture System is based on these principles and works by balancing the body’s energy and building the core Qi. The distinctive feature of this protocol is improved overall health.

We are very proud to offer the Oprah-endorsed (see the article here http://www.oprah.com/omagazine/valerie-monroe-and-the-o-beauty-team-try-botox-lasers-and-more) Mei Zen Acupuncture System. This ancient needling technique draws Qi and Blood to the face, thus increasing levels of collagen and elastin. The result of this special acupuncture formula is diminished lines, brighter skin, firmer muscle tone, reduction (or full elimination) of rosacea and acne, healthier complexion and overall rejuvenation.
