Acupuncture, Traditional Chinese Medicine at Highland park.

Starting today, the medical community is officially moving from the term “PCOS” (Polycystic O***y Syndrome) to Polycystic Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS). This shift is much more than just a name change; it represents a major correction in our clinical understanding. For years, the term “PCOS” has misled both patients and physicians to focus heavily on the appearance of “cysts” on the ovaries. The fact is, these are not actual cysts, but underdeveloped follicles. More importantly, we now recognize that the entire syndrome is driven not primarily by reproductive issues, but by a pervasive metabolic dysfunction—specifically, insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia. By renaming it PMOS, we are adopting a “metabolic-first” approach. This means our primary diagnostic and treatment focus is on systemic metabolic health rather than just period regulation. This change is vital for helping patients address long-term health risks like Type 2 diabetes , allowing for earlier and more accurate diagnoses and personalized treatment that truly targets the root cause. This is a crucial step forward for patient clarity and proactive care. Park
Addressing a Stye with Acupuncture .
Check out this before and after! Upper panel, you can see the typical presentation of a stye (hordeolum): redness, localized swelling, and discomfort caused by an infected oil gland.
Lower panel: taken after just one acupuncture session, the inflammation has visibly calmed, and the skin tone is returning to normal.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, a stye is often seen as “heat” or “stagnation.” Acupuncture moves Qi helps resolve the blockage quickly.

Did you know your ear is a “micro-system” for your entire body? 👂✨
What is Auricular Acupuncture? Auricular (ear) acupuncture is a specialized therapy where specific points on the ear are stimulated to promote healing throughout the body. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the ear is seen as a map of the internal organs and nervous system. By stimulating these points—whether with tiny needles or non-invasive “ear seeds” like the ones in this photo—we can help:
• 🍃 Reduce stress and anxiety
• 💤 Improve sleep quality
• 💆♀️ Manage chronic pain and inflammation
• 🔋 Boost overall energy

Restoring Mobility After Carpal Tunnel Surgery
Recovering from surgery isn’t always a straight line. This patient was several months post-op from a Carpal Tunnel Release, but she hit a frustrating plateau. Her fingers were stiff and “locked,” unable to close more than 1.5 inches from her palm. Simple tasks—like gripping a jar or making a fist—felt impossible.
We turned to Acupuncture to help break through the scar tissue and neurological hesitation. By targeting specific motor points and reducing local inflammation, after her very first session. For the first time in months, you can see her fingers reaching the palm with ease.
