Shingles & Nerve Pain
Shingles can be an intensely painful and disruptive condition, often causing burning nerve pain, sensitivity, rash, and lingering discomfort known as post-herpetic neuralgia. At Golden Crane Acupuncture, we offer a gentle, whole-person approach to supporting recovery from shingles. Through acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine, we aim to reduce pain, calm inflammation, support the immune system, and help the body heal more comfortably.
Each treatment is tailored to your individual stage of illness and symptom presentation, because shingles can vary greatly from person to person. In the acute phase, acupuncture may help reduce pain, inflammation, and stress on the nervous system, while in later stages it can support nerve healing, sleep, and overall recovery. Our goal is to provide compassionate, individualized care that helps ease discomfort, speed healing, and reduce the risk of lingering nerve pain so you can return to feeling more balanced and well.
I visited Dr. Collin recently for a case of shingles and he has helped me immensely. I am not new to TCM and find Dr. Collin to be very thorough and skilled. -M. Boling
