Arthirits
Arthritis is the swelling of one’s joints. There are over 100 types of arthritis which cause pain, stiffness and swelling in the joints and that list continues to grow.
Diagnosis and Treatment of Depression
According to the Canadian Mental Health Association, there are approx. 1 million Canadians who suffer from some form of depression and The World Health Organization predicts depression will be the second-leading cause of disability in the world by 2020, trailing only heart disease. Western antidepressant drugs such as Prozac, Paxil — which work by altering certain chemicals (e.g. Serotonin) called neurotransmitters in our brains — are often prescribed for people suffering from depression.
What is Diabetes?
Diabetes is a chronic condition in which there is a high level of sugar (Glucose) in the bloodstream. When we eat foods, it is broken down into Glucose by our liver which is absorbed by our fat and muscle’s cells and stored as energy. Diabetes develops when the Pancreas does not produce enough Insulin, a hormone that allows the body to absorb Glucose.
What Is Hypertension?
Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is a common condition that will catch up with most people who live into older age.
When it’s too high, it raises the heart’s workload and can cause serious damage to the arteries.
Over time, uncontrolled high blood pressure increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, and kidney disease.
Acupuncture and Infertility
It is estimated that one in seven couples have problems conceiving worldwide and this ratio is similar across most countries, independent of the country’s level of development
Acute and Chronic Insomnia
Like pain, insomnia can be classified as acute (lasting less than 1 month) or chronic (lasting months). Insomnia is a very common condition in which a person isn’t getting enough sleep or is getting poor quality of sleep and the typical patterns of insomnia include
Menopause
Menopause is a natural transitional period in a woman’s life when menstruation becomes less frequent and eventually stops. It typically occurs between the ages of 45 to 55 when the body stops producing eggs and the female hormones Estrogen and Prosterone. The most common symptoms of menopause include:
Diagnosis and Treatment of Migraines
Migraines are painful, often debilitating headaches, sometimes accompanied by nausea, vomiting and sensitivity to light, noise, and smell. These throbbing headaches tend to reoccur and can last from hours to days. The precise underlying cause of migraines is unknown but the principal theory is that they are caused by spasms in the arteries that supply blood to the brain. While headaches may be a warning sign of more serious medical conditions, people most often experience either a tension headache, a migraine or both.
Pain Management
Pain is a symptom from a variety of causes such as injury, disease, and strenuous activity. Pain is a message sent by the body to the brain from the affected area but pain can affect the entire body and mind. Pain is classified into two categories: chronic and acute.
Patient Testimonials
"I am grateful to Dr. Peter Zhao for my improved sleep. My renewed sleep has also helped several other minor issues. My sleep deepened over several more treatments and I was grateful to see some weight loss as well. I can’t be more grateful for Dr. Zhao and his expertise. Next time I will book in before things get difficult.
