Yes
According to traditional Chinese medicine, rashes are often caused by damp heat in your system/body. I believe we can help you out or treat this successfully with acupuncture, herbs, and sometimes massage. You may need 2-3 sessions a week for 4-8 weeks.
Yes. I encourage you to book a session with your practitioner of choice to get help with relief.
Yes, it can.
Yes! Acupuncture can help with rashes, absolutely.
Yes!

Depends what is causing the rash.... but usually, yes. Or we can help you figure out who can help you.
Yes, but you may have to do some digging to find out what's causing the rash in the first place to keep it from coming back.
I don’t think so
Yes
A rash is a complicated issue. Personally, I believe oral herbal medicine works better.
Yes, acupuncture can help with rashes. For faster result, herbal medicine is recommended to take after acupuncture treatment.
If the rash is caused by anxiety I believe it can.
I do not know if acupuncture will help you. I have not tried it. But I think you need good lymphatic and blood cleansing.
Yes. Though the rash itself may be treated using topical herbs or liniments, the cause of the rash can be treated using acupuncture.
Acupuncture is not first-line therapy for rashes. In fact, it is most proper to first determine what is causing the rash, so you prevent them. Look at diet, detergents, and environmental influences.
Yes, acupuncture can help with rashes.
Acupuncture can help, but you should really enhance your gut health, and take a careful look at outside irritants such as soaps and poisonous sprays on our foods etc. cleaning up the diet and staying out of the heat can help with the skin as well. Your acupuncturist may be able to find you a Chinese Herbal formula that will help as well.
Sometimes, yes, acupuncture can be a good treatment for rash or other skin issues. The first thing I usually recommend for patients with this type of problem is to change soaps (body, face, shampoo, laundry). if the rash persists, then we look at diagnosis and treatment.
For a case like this, it's important to see a provider who has one of the following credentials: L.Ac./R.Ac. and/or Dipl Ac./Dipl OM. These are going to be people who attended and graduated from an accredited school of Chinese medicine and they're usually nationally board certified. If you need help finding someone in your area, you can use the "Find a Practitioner" lookup at NCCAOM.org.
