In Connecticut (CT) I have seen many cases of edema. Edema is a defined as the accumulation of fluid on the body. Edema can occur anywhere on the body.                                                                                                                                                                                          I had an interesting case of edema of the face that occurred with a 49 year old female runner who was entering menopause. This patient’s facial swelling would resolve itself while the patient was on the acupuncture table. Part of the reason this woman responded so quickly to her treatment was her superior physical conditioning.   I have given examples of a few cases of Edema I've treated in Connecticut (CT).

I had a very interesting case of allergies and hormone changes causing a young woman to have predictable facial swelling. The swelling was caused by both food and changes occurring naturally during her cycle. Her response to acupuncture was immediate, facial swelling evaporating on the acupuncture table.      Usually seen with patient of poor physical conditioning, pitting edema seen on the legs, fatigue, with the addition of heat symptoms, hot intolerance                        Dampness Accumulation with Heat    Seen commonly with hormone imbalances, menopause, back pain, knee pain are symptoms seen with the pattern of edema Hormone Imbalance Edema
