Acupuncture Plus is a full-service acupuncture and nutrition practice located
in Denver’s “healing arts mansion,” a historic landmark
on Logan Street between 9th and 10th streets. In our spacious, comfortable
second-floor offices, we treat everything from chronic pain to infertility
to smoking cessation.
Our fully staffed facility is led by Carol LeCroy,
a licensed acupuncturist who has been in practice in her
Logan Street offices for more than a decade.
Carol combines acupuncture with other key principles of Eastern
medicine: Individualized diagnosis, physiology, and the use
of herbal and nutritional supplements.
We believe in combining traditional Chinese herbal
remedies with modern nutritional and dietary therapy.
That means an individualized diagnosis of all new patients,
to determine and “baseline” where you are,
health-wise: Your overall constitution, any imbalances
-- anything you feel needs attention or change.
According to the World Health Organization, 25% of all modern medicines are
made from plants first used traditionally. What is traditional herbal medicine?
It’s the ancient art of prescribing herbal formulas, according to Chinese
principles, to correct imbalances and harmonize the system.
Our pharmacy is stocked with hundreds of herbs, so that we can make individualized
formulas. We also stock a wide range of classical Chinese herbal treatments
in pill form. We combine these ancient Chinese formulas with modern research
in dietary therapy and nutritional products to achieve the
highest level of health and, most importantly, resolution
of your symptoms.
Acupuncture is a Chinese medical treatment for pain, allergy
management, addiction withdrawal, infertility and scores
of other maladies. As a medical science, acupuncture dates
back more than 2,500 years, to the early Chinese dynasties.
It involves the insertion of very fine, sterile needles
just under the skin at specific points along the body, known
as “energy pathways,” or “meridians.” Heat
application and electrical stimulation is sometimes used
in combination with acupuncture, depending on a person’s
symptoms.

“Acupuncture has been proven effective in relieving
postoperative pain, nausea during pregnancy, nausea and
vomiting resulting from chemotherapy, and dental pain
with extremely low side effects. It can also alleviate
anxiety, panic disorders and insomnia.” |
