The human body always has strange pain(s) that occurs for reasons that could not be identified. Acupuncture does the trick. Registered Acupuncturist Farshid Khajehpour shared a case of chest pain that had disappeared with only 1 treatment.
In July, of 2021, a 48-year-old gentleman complained that he felt chest pain for a week beforehand. All medical tests came out normal, but the pain was a 9 on a scale of 10.
After carefully assessing his condition, Farshid diagnosed it as Qi stagnation in the kidney meridian ( Chinese Medicine terms ). 10 needles were applied to the points located in the Stomach meridian, Bladder Meridian, Large intestine meridian, and Lung meridian. Amazingly, the pain in his chest was decreasing while the needles were still in the skin. At the end of the session, the pain rated 1 out of 10.
In a follow-up a week later, the pain had disappeared completely (Cases similar to this are rare). This is one of the many cases that we treat, but please remember that most cases that are chronic, can't be treated with one single treatment.
