Hives acupuncture<\/strong><\/a> is one of the leading treatments available. Urticaria acupuncture<\/strong> works because it treats the whole body instead of just the symptoms of the disease. Not only can acupuncture heal the symptoms of hives, in many cases they do not reoccur and you are cured of them altogether. This is why acupuncture for hives is gaining in popularity year to year.<\/p>\n

Chinese medicine has a more holistic understanding than that of the Western world. So, Chinese medicine treatment starts with an analysis of the entire system. In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) it is believed that energy flows through the body in channels known as \u2018meridians\u2019. When this energy flow becomes unbalanced, sickness or physical and emotional discomfort will result.<\/p>\n

Hives are considered to be a wind rash.\u00a0 Furthermore, they are diagnosed as being warm or cold. Normally, those that are red are associated with heat and those that are pink are white are said to be wind-cold. This diagnosis will help determine treatment.<\/p>\n

The treatments that are to be received are decided after considering both the root (cause) and the branch (symptoms). Immediate relief is given to relieve itching and swelling so that underlying imbalances, or causes, can be addressed.<\/p>\n

SP 10 is located above the inner corner of the kneecap when the knee is slightly bent; it is one of the major points used to treat skin conditions. LI 11 is found in the depression at the outer part of the elbow creases. This point is meant to help expel wind and heat from the body and to reduce inflammation.<\/p>\n
