Dr. Lai can aid post-stroke rehabilitation by stimulating the nervous system to encourage neuroplasticity, helping the brain form new neural connections. Blood flow is improved through acupuncture, delivering oxygen and nutrients to damaged areas, and supporting recovery. Acupuncture also reduces inflammation, helping limit stroke-related damage, and regulates muscle tone, relaxing spastic muscles while stimulating weak ones.
By integrating acupuncture into post-stroke rehabilitation, patients often experience faster and more complete recovery of both physical and mental functions.

Cosmetic acupuncture can enhance appearance by boosting blood flow and encouraging collagen production. The gentle placement of needles on the face increases circulation, bringing nutrients and oxygen to the skin, which brightens and evens the complexion. It also stimulates collagen and elastin, which can reduce fine lines and improve skin firmness. By addressing deeper body imbalances, facial acupuncture helps with stress reduction, digestion, and sleep, all of which impact skin health. Over time, many people notice a natural, refreshed glow without invasive treatments.

Dr. Lai helps with infertility by improving blood flow to the reproductive organs, enhancing the quality of the uterine lining for implantation. Hormone levels are regulated during treatment, which can help balance the menstrual cycle and improve ovulation. Additionally, acupuncture reduces stress, a common factor in infertility, by promoting relaxation and decreasing cortisol levels. This can improve the success rate of IVF treatments by supporting embryo implantation and overall reproductive health. Additionally, Dr. Lai can address underlying conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) or endometriosis that can contribute to infertility.

Dr. Lai utilizes acupuncture to alleviate chronic pain by stimulating endorphins and blocking pain signals to the brain. Acupuncture improves blood circulation to affected areas, reducing inflammation and promoting healing. Dr. Lai works to relax tense muscles and relieve pressure on nerves, providing relief from pain caused by muscle tightness or nerve compression. Treatment modulates the nervous system, reducing the perception of pain and increasing pain tolerance. Additionally, the work of Dr. Lai supports overall well-being, helping to address emotional or mental stress that can exacerbate chronic pain conditions.
-
Dr. Lai treats depression by regulating neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, which play a key role in mood balance. Stress is reduced by calming the nervous system and lowering cortisol levels, promoting relaxation and emotional stability. Additionally, Dr. Lai uses acupuncture to improve blood flow to the brain, enhancing oxygen supply and supporting mental clarity. By addressing underlying imbalances in the body, Dr. Lai can alleviate physical symptoms of depression, such as fatigue and sleep disturbances. Additionally, acupuncture promotes a sense of well-being, helping individuals manage the emotional and psychological aspects of depression.

From digestive disorders, migraines, long-term COVID-19, and even PTSD, The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has researched and formulated over three thousand scholarly articles outlining evidence-based success in the use of acupuncture for over two hundred medical ailments. Time and time again, medical scholars conclude that the root of abnormality comes from a lack of balance in the body, and the pinnacle of acupuncture lies in its ability to bring harmony to the human form.
