EAM at Family Acupuncture & Herbs of Reading

Unlock your body's natural healing potential and achieve lasting relief with Electro Acupuncture Medicine (EAM) at Family Acupuncture & Herbs of Reading. Our innovative approach combines time-tested wisdom with advanced techniques, offering you a safe, effective path to improved health and well-being.

What is Electro Acupuncture Medicine (EAM)?

Electro Acupuncture Medicine (EAM) builds upon time-tested acupuncture principles by applying gentle electrical currents to inserted needles. This advanced technique amplifies the therapeutic effects, stimulating your body's natural healing processes more effectively than traditional acupuncture alone.

Key Benefits of EAM

  • Enhanced pain relief for chronic conditions
  • Improved muscle relaxation and reduced tension
  • Accelerated healing of injuries
  • Stimulation of natural pain-relieving endorphins
  • Improved circulation to treated areas
  • Potential reduction in inflammation
  • Support for neurological and muscular disorders
  • Fertility and reproductive health support

How EAM Works

By influencing your central nervous system and pain pathways, EAM offers a more focused and potentially longer-lasting therapeutic effect. This non-invasive, drug-free approach is particularly effective for managing chronic pain, neurological issues, and supporting reproductive health.

Conditions We Treat

Our EAM services address a wide range of health concerns, including:

  • Chronic or acute pain (back, neck, shoulder, joint)
  • Muscle spasms and sports injuries
  • Nerve pain and neuropathy
  • Sciatica and low back pain
  • Headaches and migraines
  • Bell's palsy or facial paralysis
  • Fertility and reproductive health challenges
  • Post-surgical recovery

What to Expect During Your Treatment

  1. Personalized Evaluation: We'll discuss your health concerns and create a customized plan.
  2. Needle Placement: Thin, sterile needles are gently inserted at specific points.
  3. Electrical Stimulation: Small clips deliver a mild electrical current to selected needles.
  4. Relaxation: You'll rest comfortably for 20-30 minutes as the treatment takes effect.
  5. Post-Treatment Assessment: We'll discuss immediate effects and plan follow-up sessions.

Rest assured, we adjust the electrical stimulation to your comfort level. Many patients find the experience relaxing and rejuvenating.

Their Words, Their Journeys, Real Outcomes

What Our Patients Say About Their Fertility Experience

My experience with Jose was very comforting during a very difficult time. Women dealing with infertility issues need to be treated with care and concern and Jose completely understands this. He allowed me to relax during a time I found this to be very difficult. He understands the challenges fertility treatments present and is very helpful explaining the process when doctors have fallen short in this area. I looked forward to each session and am grateful for the care I received.

I couldn't be happier with my experience here! Jose helped my husband and I get pregnant not once but twice. We had tried for almost two years with my first daughter to get pregnant. I had a number of tests done and the results were unexplained infertility. I am young and healthy and couldn't believe that I would have to do fertility treatments quite yet. I did three rounds of Clomid, but didn't have any luck. After being frustrated and emotional I wanted to try alternative measures. I had irregular periods so I thought that might be what was causing my issues. Jose treated me with herbs and acupuncture and on the third month we were pregnant! It was awesome!!

When we thought about having our next child we didn't want to go through the emotional roller coaster of trying for a long time so when my daughter was about 15 months we went back to Jose. He started me on the same herbs and the very first month we were successful! This was after not using any birth control since our daughter was born. I still can't believe it!

I am SO thankful that I came across Family Acupuncture and Herbs of Reading. Jose has truly changed our lives and helped us to make our dream come true of having a family!! I can't say enough good things about his business. Jose has been professional, knowledgeable, and attentive. I would recommend him highly to anyone thinking about seeking his expertise!
