Insect Bites and Stings – The warm weather brings all the biting insects out – from mosquitos to horse flies, as well as the stinging insects like wasps. Some people can have bad reactions to this however acupuncture can help to bring down itching and swelling caused by insect’s bites and stings.
Food Poisoning – In the warmer months food poisoning becomes more common as food left out can easily harbour bacteria and it can be harder to keep it cool. Acupuncture can help to build your body back up once you are getting over food poisoning.
