FAQs
Can acupuncture or functional medicine help with facial palsy and tics?
Care is individualized. Some patients seek support for symptom burden, stress regulation, pain patterns, digestion, sleep, inflammation, or recovery habits. The first step is understanding your history and whether this clinic is the right fit.
What happens at the first visit?
The visit focuses on symptoms, history, goals, lifestyle patterns, and relevant medical context. Depending on the concern, care may include acupuncture, Traditional Chinese Medicine, functional medicine review, therapeutic exercise, nutrition, or behavior-pattern support.
When should I see a medical doctor first?
Seek medical care promptly for severe, sudden, worsening, unexplained, or urgent symptoms. Integrative care works best when serious conditions have been properly evaluated.
