Ancient traditional therapy


Patients around the world rely on various traditional methods of curing disease. It is common in Vietnam for patients to resort to "ancient" treatment options such as "Cupping" and Induced inflammation to ward off disease. This is an example of a patient who has severe thoracic compression and vertebral fusion. For the past few years her pain has been so severe that she has been using heated cups to assist in drawing out the "toxins" that are causing her pain. In addition, she has extreme scarring from years of scraping the skin to induce inflammation to ease her back pain.
After some manipulation, physical therapy and pain medications, she described her pain as significantly less. It will take multiple treatments such as ours to provide more permanent relief.
