Combat Vertigo with Acupuncture & Herbal Medicine   Vertigo is a disruptive condition, which causes stress in a patient’s life. In vertigo the patient experiences spinning, loss of balance and occasionally nausea. It can manifest in a sleeping or sitting posture, or only show when the patient stands up or walks around.   According to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), vertigo is caused by low blood pressure, dampness in the body, deficiency or blockage of vital Qi energy and stagnation of blood.

The treatment is traditionally used in Chinese Medicine and involves mixing a specially chosen herbal formula into a medicinal paste which is then taped by experienced acupuncturists to points on the body called acumoxa points. The paste is applied to the body 3 times every 7-10 days. Research studies recommend that patients stick as close to the dates as possible and try to ensure that treatment is done in hot seasons like summer. It is important to have the paste taped to points mostly located on the patient's back, such as DAZHUI, FEISHU, SHENSHU. All of these points are important to improve the immune system and the theory behind them is to expel all the bad energy and dampness, which are considered as the factors which cause the asthma, hay fever, poor circulati
