TCM and Acupuncture for COVID 19
If someone catches COVID 19, usually they have fever, cough, phlegm and shortness of breath that can also be tackled with Chinese Herbal Medicine.
Based on research published in 2021, Acupuncture may play a role in treatment of COVID 19.

TCM Approach to COVID-19
We encourage people to get vaccinated against COVID-19 as a general public health policy. We also encourage wearing a mask once indoors.
With the different variants on the horizon, there is still a slight chance of contracting COVID-19 even vaccinated, and the TCM approach is to treat it as an infectious disease.
Treatment principle will be reduce fever with herbs that clear heat and toxicity, resolve phlegm with herbs that are specific for that, expel wind as it is deemed an exterior pathogen, unblock nasal passages and strengthen Lungs or other involved organs using specific guiding herbs.
If your immune system is weak or have an autoimmune disorder, acupuncture is a great mean to regulate your immune system to be able to fight the disease if you catch it.
