Plantar fasciitis

Heel pain is very common and can occur at any age. As long as it is not caused by a traumatic heel bone fracture, more than 95% of cases can have the pain controlled within one week through acupuncture combined with Chinese herbal medicine. In the past, acupuncture alone usually required 3 to 5 treatment sessions, but with the addition of herbal medicine, the treatment course is significantly shortened and the chance of recurrence is reduced.

Bipolar disorder (mania–depression), anxiety, depression, schizophrenia, tic disorders (such as uncontrollable blinking, shoulder shrugging, or sudden vocal outbursts), stubborn insomnia, irritability, anger, and similar conditions—all of these can be self-checked at home.

Simply lie down on your bed and gently palpate the area to the left of your navel. If you feel a distinct arterial pulsation there, it indicates a key diagnostic sign. Patients who present with this finding typically show little response to conventional herbal formulas, but when treated using my method, they often improve rapidly—many notice significant relief on the very first day of treatment.

Over the past month, I have applied this approach to dozens of cases, all of which have responded without exception. The pulsation to the left of the navel is the critical point—the “beat of the drum” that guides both diagnosis and therapy.

If you are struggling with these persistent conditions, you can try this simple self-examination. Should you discover the pulsation, you are welcome to seek my treatment.

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia – BPH

In the early and middle stages of prostatic hyperplasia, traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture can often achieve complete clinical remission (with no urinary problems for around ten years), and in many cases, surgery can be completely avoided. For those who do not prefer acupuncture, herbal medicine alone can also deliver similar results. For issues related to prostatic hyperplasia, you may consult Dr. Zhu at: 0357622804
