I'm Luzie Buscemi with Buscemi Hintegrative Acupuncture, and I'm here today to talk to you about migraines. Migraines are a really big deal in this country. It's currently the third most prevalent illness. About one in four households deal with migraines. Today you're going to be hearing from one of my patients who has had great success with acupuncture for her migraine.
They knocked out my headache, so that was fine, but there was also side-effects. There was grogginess. You know, I got sleepy I got a little grouchy, and I didn't want to do anything the rest of the day once I took it. I would run out of Imitrex, and I could not get another prescription until the following month. My primary physician at Sharp, she recommended acupuncture.
I told her I was tired of taking medication, so she says Well why don't you try Boel Acupuncture. I think you would like it. I just thought maybe acupuncture since there's no medication involved it would make me feel better, and it has. I started coming to acupuncture like twice a week, and after about three or four sessions of pressure points for migraines, my migraines started going away.

I wanted to talk to you about a super important topic to 2 to 4% of the world, that's 10 million people that have been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia.
Fibromyalgia is an unbelievably difficult condition to not only treat but even just try to self-manage with self-care.
We're going to dig right into it here today.
The symptoms are vague.
There are a lot of people that probably have fibromyalgia that has been undiagnosed and we'll kind of get into that, but the symptoms are whole body aches and pains, fatigue-it used even to be called chronic fatigue syndrome-and sleep that's non-restored if you're supposedly sleeping for eight hours and you wake up, and you feel like you could sleep another eight hours.

Hi, I am Vanessa Ho, a licensed Acupuncturist here at Healing with Zen in Pasadena, California.
Today we're going to do a quick 101 on Facial Rejuvenation and the basics of Facial Acupuncture.
Another frequently asked question is, "How does it differ from the other treatments that they have had before" (such as botox, laser treatments, etc.).
A significant difference, in my opinion, is that there is no major downtime regarding getting a more youthful looking, healthier complexion with Facial Acupuncture.
