Hypothyroidism

Patients with hypothyroidism experience a range of symptoms, including fatigue, weight gain, and cold intolerance, which indicate imbalances in thyroid function. At Johns Island Acupuncture in Charleston, Smith will conduct a thorough evaluation of symptoms, medical history, and lifestyle factors to identify and confirm hypothyroidism. Using diagnostic tests to measure thyroid hormone levels, ensuring an accurate diagnosis, Smith will review this detailed assessment and develop a tailored treatment plan that addresses the specific imbalances and effectively manages the condition.

To address hypothyroidism effectively, Smith combines acupuncture with personalized herbal remedies and lifestyle modifications. Acupuncture helps stimulate the thyroid gland and regulate hormone production, alleviating symptoms and enhancing overall energy levels. Smith’s expertise in herbology allows him to prescribe specific herbal formulas that support thyroid function and improve metabolic balance. Additionally, he provides guidance on dietary and lifestyle changes, and incorporates special exercises to further support thyroid health.

This integrated approach enhances immune function and balances thyroid hormone production through a range of methods, offering a natural and holistic alternative to conventional treatments and aiming for long-term management and improved quality of life.
