The physician should not treat the disease but the patient who is suffering from it. - Maimonides
Hello, this is Brynn Kessler, Lic.Ac., of Hill Dragon Acupuncture. My purpose is simple: I am here to reduce your suffering. That doesn't mean your cancer will be cured or your health problems will disappear overnight or any other miracle will happen. What it means is I can help you feel better, so you can begin to live the life you deserve.
My special passions are working with cancer patients and pre/post-operative patients. Acupuncture and traditional bio-medicine complement each other wonderfully in these areas, and it is my pleasure to bring Chinese medicine's holistic perspective into such significant medical events in your life and the lives of those close to you. Studies have shown that acupuncture can address side effects of chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery, such as nausea, fatigue, and pre-op anxiety, as well as certain symptoms caused by cancer, such as bone pain from metastasis.
That said, I do love to work with patients experiencing any of the many forms of suffering that acupuncture can address: asthma, arthritis, morning sickness, menopausal symptoms, irritable bowel syndrome, chronic and acute pain conditions, depression, and more. If you want to know whether acupuncture could help with your particular health condition, give us a call: (617) 383-HILL.
I use both Japanese style and TCM style acupuncture to create an individualized treatment for each patient. Examination of the body as it presents and changes over time via tongue, pulse, and abdominal palpitation is combined with an in-depth analysis of the symptomatic experiences of each patient. This leads to an optimal treatment strategy based on acupuncture, moxa in its many forms, cupping, and gua sha.
