Infertility usually needs full investigations, to rule out obvious impediments. (Obviously the only time it doesn’t is if the patient gets pregnant while beginning investigations). Assuming the male has a good count of mobile sperm, and the female has open tubes (at least one), and at least one functioning ovary, the next step in Western medicine is usually drug therapies. Other options include eventual IVF, or in-vitro-fertilization. But one ancient therapy is now surging back onto the menu; Acupuncture can be a huge help in getting couples pregnant.
Dr. Peter G. Hanson, a Denver acupuncturist, is an MD who has delivered over a thousand babies, and has done a lot of work with couples who had trouble getting pregnant. His book “The Joy of Stress” is an international bestseller in over twenty languages, most recently translated into Chinese and Arabic this year. He notes that during times of stress, the body is programmed to DECREASE fertility. This comes from an age when fertility could destroy a population of animals during stress, such as a famine or drought. Thus, the animal kingdom is wired to interpret stress as a trigger that shuts down fertility, thinking this is a help. In the modern setting for humans, the stress may even be that of trying to get pregnant, yet the body still responds by shutting down; Acupuncture can reverse this imbalance, without any drugs, and without any risks to mother or child.

Acupuncture is thousands of years old. However, when it is used in the context of the underlying anatomy, an MD can have even better results. Peter G. Hanson, M.D., has been specializing in acupuncture since 1980, and has treated hundreds of thousands of patients successfully, from all across the US. By fully understanding the patient’s complaint, he can use his knowledge of anatomy and pathology to get superior results. For example, in back pain, problems often start with muscle spasms between the vertebrae. Drugs alone are usually not able to penetrate, as the spasm has virtually no blood supply. A precise placement of an acupuncture needle can solve the issue, when stimulated with a mild electro current. In cases of cardiac pacemakers, good results are also obtained without electro-stimulation, by manually stimulating the needles.

With a little help from exercise and good diet, we can keep an older body looking younger . However, the face needs even more help. There are no stations in the gym for “face” exercises, yet that is the one part of the body we can’t hide with fashion (unless we are planning to rob a bank!). Peter G. Hanson M.D. has revolutionized muscle toning in the face with electro-stimulation of acupuncture needles. Since 1980 he has helped pioneer the use of this friendly form of computerized stimulation to all of his acupuncture needles in over a half-million cases. He co-developed a home machine, the FaceMaster, which has sold over 400,000 units with Suzanne Somers . For fast facial toning, start off with a series of six acupuncture facials, a week apart. Then, switch to the home unit for a daily FaceMaster treatment for followup. Your face will thank you!

Most of our patients, even children, are pleasantly surprised to find our needles don’t feel like any shot they have ever had. That’s because our needles are extremely fine (like a cat’s whisker) and because we don’t inject any fluid through them (like a flu shot). Each needle is made of surgical quality metal, and are sterile, and disposed after each insertion. A little “pinch” sensation is all most people feel, and once the needle is in place, most people are so relaxed they can almost fall asleep for the next ten minutes. Patients are pleased to note that these needles rarely ever cause bruising, and are extremely effective in treating their symptoms.
