Incorporating Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine for Senior Care
For seniors, good affordable healthcare is an important factor for better quality of life. Many suffer from chronic pain and chronic symptoms managed by a complex cocktail of medications that often get more and higher dosages over time. Others might want to avoid another surgery for their deteriorating joints, having replaced one and wanting keep existing ones working for as long as possible.
