Peter G. Hanson M.D.

Denver’s Peter G. Hanson, M.D., practices locally, but his influence is felt globally.  His international bestseller, “The Joy of Stress” has been translated into many languages since it topped North America’s lists in 1986.  It has sold over a million copies around the world. 

The latest edition, “The NEW Joy of Stress” has been rewritten and reedited, and has now been translated into foreign editions.  The latest to be published is the Arabic edition, now sold throughout the middle east and north Africa.  It seems stress is truly international, and Dr. Hanson’s positive approach to it crosses all boundaries.   

Here is an review from the UAE’s National newspaper:

Headaches in pregnancy, acupuncture to the rescue!

Posted: under Pregnancy.
Tags: , , ,

When a woman gets pregnant, the first advice she hears is to avoid even a simple aspirin or advil, and to not take so much as a glass of wine for nine months.  So what is she to  do when a headache strikes?  Having delivered over 1,000 babies in his career, Peter Hanson is no stranger to this problem.  The best solution is medical acupuncture; very powerful, yet not one side-effect to mother or baby. 

Acupuncture works by producing high levels of endorphine, along with the body’s own cortisone.  This combo fights pain, as well as the inflammation that causes the pain at a cellular level.  So acupuncture can get at the origins of a headache, and not just apply a “band-aid” solution for a few hours (like a pill would do).

Acupuncture and Infertility, Denver

Posted: under Infertility.
Tags: , , , ,

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.  To learn more about this, contact Dr. Hanson at www.peterhansonmd.com.

Why have acupuncture done by an MD?

Posted: under Denver Acupuncture.

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.
