Acupuncture for Chronic Pelvic Pain in Women , 2023 Original PDF

This authoritative and comprehensive pain management resource is a pioneering work that bridges the gap between Chinese medicine acupuncture and biomedicine treatments, especially for chronic pelvic pain in women. Approximately one in seven women experience chronic pelvic pain, often associated with gynaecological conditions like endometriosis and pelvic spasms. Many of these women also suffer from anxiety, depression, and poor sleep quality. This book addresses the urgent need for a non-drug, holistic approach to immediately reduce pain using the Balance Method acupuncture, trigger point deactivation, and the Alchemical Five Element psycho-emotional perspective to address anxiety and depression. Dr. Chong emphasizes a person-centered approach in this invaluable resource, providing useful and effective tools for self-care, whether for clinicians or patients.
