Colitis

Chronic colitis can be very well controlled with acupuncture and Chinese herbs. In Chinese medicine, it is mostly caused by spleen deficiency with some remained damp-heat in the gastrointestine. The acute attack with more blood and pus often indicates more damp-heat, while less blood or pus with chronic diarrhea and abdominal pain indicates more spleen deficiency causing failure of blood to be held. By taking herbs that can both strengthen the spleen to hold blood, supported by clearing damp-heat, patient can be free of symptoms after several months treatment. Dr. Lu has great success in treating colitis.

This program requires participants to have a consistent treatment, twice a week, for about 2 months. When the condition is well controlled, it is also important to have the maintenance treatment, once every two weeks or once a month, depending on the improvement.
