To vaccinate or not to vaccinate is the question of our times. Of my patients who have opted to vaccinate, I have treated several side effects of vaccines that will never make it into the literature on “vaccine side effects”. So, I want to deliver a clear message to my patients who are considering getting vaccinated:

YOU HAVE OPTIONS!!!

I have found that people who take the herbal formula, Xiao Chai Hu Tang, tend to have fewer side effects from vaccines, in general. I have been using this formula to assist people in integrating vaccinations into their system with minimal side effects for 2 decades. It has not failed me now. 

Interestingly, while I have been suggesting this formula to people undergoing all sorts of vaccinations, irrespective of their age, I have come to find out that this is one of the main formulas used in treating COVID-19 in China. 

Interesting you say?

YES! I say!

Other things I have learned:

Acupuncture treatment before and within three days after the vaccine is incredibly helpful in mitigating the problematic side-effects of all three available vaccinations. 

When I give treatment prior to vaccine administration, I utilize “tacks”, which are acupuncture needles that are so small that they fit on a bandaid. I place these tacks on key points of the meridians that tend to be affected by the vaccine shot, thus lessening the pain in the arm associated with all three Covid vaccinations. 

The results? People have MARKEDLY FEWER symptoms post-vaccine, especially arm pain. 

The combination of a base herbal formula, immune regulating acupuncture treatment, and tacks on specific acupuncture points, has yielded wonderful results! 

Patients often ask me about my thoughts on the COVID vaccine. My answer is short and to the point: We don’t know. We are all in a great experiment that we did not ask to be a part of. We all do the best we can with the information we have at the time. To vaccinate or not to vaccinate, that is the question facing all of us. If you choose to vaccinate, I can help you make it a smoother transition. 

If you want to get a COVID vaccine and minimize your chances of subjective ill-health, please contact us. I would be happy to share my experience with you!
