This is the story of a 54-year-old woman who first visited Tensegrity Acupuncture in November 2024. Having been diagnosed with psoriasis 20 years ago, she initially sought acupuncture to address menopausal symptoms and manage stress.
Step 1: Menopausal Symptoms and Stress Relief
During her first six treatments, we focused on targeting menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, mood swings, and sleep disturbances. By implementing personalized acupuncture sessions, she reported a remarkable 65-70% improvement in her symptoms by early December 2024.
Step 2: Addressing Psoriasis
Encouraged by the progress, she asked for help with a persistent psoriasis condition affecting her heels, noting that it had begun to improve subtly. Our holistic approach included:
Targeted Acupuncture: To reduce systemic inflammation and improve circulation to the affected area.
Individualized Herbal Medicine: Designed to balance her body’s internal systems and support skin health.
Ja Woon Gu Ointment: A custom-prepared topical remedy to aid in skin repair and hydration.
Results
The first image, taken on December 1, 2024, shows the condition of her heel when we began focusing on psoriasis. The final image, captured on March 27, 2025, demonstrates the remarkable clearing of her heel skin after consistent treatments.
Timeline: Four months of acupuncture, herbal medicine, and Ja Woon Gu application.
Additional Context: The patient had discontinued steroid creams six months before starting treatment at our clinic.
Her Transformation
This journey highlights the profound impact of acupuncture and integrative therapies not only on internal well-being but also on visible, tangible results. Her improved skin condition and relief from menopausal symptoms have significantly enhanced her quality of life.
