Brain Health Plan

At Scottsdale Family Acupuncture, we understand how challenging it can be to manage Alzheimer's, Dementia, and memory issues. Our specialized treatment plan is designed to support cognitive health and improve quality of life using the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). This comprehensive plan combines acupuncture, herbal medicine, and scientifically studied supplements to provide effective, holistic care.

Understanding Alzheimer's and Dementia Through TCM
In TCM, cognitive issues like Alzheimer's and Dementia are often linked to imbalances in specific organs and systems. Here are a few patterns we commonly see and treat:
Kidney Essence Deficiency
Symptoms: Poor memory, forgetfulness, dizziness, and lower back pain.
How We Help: Strengthening the kidneys to nourish the brain and improve memory.
Heart and Spleen Deficiency
Symptoms: Palpitations, insomnia, poor memory, and fatigue.
How We Help: Boosting heart and spleen function to enhance mental clarity and energy levels.
Phlegm Misting the Mind
Symptoms: Mental confusion, foggy-headedness, and chest oppression.
How We Help: Clearing phlegm to improve mental sharpness and reduce confusion.
Liver Qi Stagnation
Symptoms: Irritability, depression, and poor memory.
How We Help: Smoothing liver qi to relieve stress and enhance cognitive function.

What to Expect
Initial Phase (0-6 months):
You may start to notice improvements in memory, reduced confusion, and better sleep.
Regular acupuncture sessions and herbal formulas will be a key part of your treatment.
