Try Chinese herbal medicine. The herbal formulas will customize based on the causes of your sweating.
Yes.
Yes, it can. I had an experience with a patient with terrible Hyperhidrosis, so bad he was considering a drastic surgery to cease the constant sweating. After one treatment, it decreased dramatically. After just two treatments, he said it was basically gone. Each case is different, but yes.
Sweating a lot indicates you have a Qi "Chi" energy deficiency. A number of acupuncture sessions combined with herbs can help you out with this problem.
Yes
yes. I encourage you to book a session with your practitioner of choice to get help with relief.
Acupuncture does help with sweating. Sweating can be caused by different diagnoses, please also ask your practitioner.
I believe an acupuncturist can find the cause of the problem and provide a solution to reduce perspiration.
Acupuncture will help, and traditional Chinese medicine will work better.
Yes.
Hi, According to the TCM theory, when a person sweats a lot or easily is because the energy (QI) that holds the vital substances in is weak. that will cause eventually what we called yin deficiency the symptoms will be dry skin, dry mouth, irritability, dry stools, etc. . Acupuncture can help combined with herb treatment.
Yes, acupuncture can help with excessive sweating. Pre-modern medicine understand this as a disharmony in the body’s fluid production and distribution and will likely be able to shift it with acupuncture and/or herbal medicine. Find an acupuncturist in your community with great review. It could take a little time but Chinese medicine is a great way to go for this issue.
Acupuncture should be able to help with this, but it is best to be assessed in person.
Yes, acupuncture can help with sweating !
Yes, acupuncture can treat sweating too much.
Excessive sweating, or hyperhidrosis, can sometimes be an indication of thyroid problems, diabetes, or infection. If I were you, I'd start with at least some basic blood work - fasting glucose, A1C, TSH, free T3/T4, and CBCw/diff. This would allow you to rule in/rule out other, more serious reasons for the issue.

Assuming all that came back normal, yes, acupuncture can sometimes help.
