Men’s Health
Acupuncture can help address men’s health concerns by regulating hormones and improving blood flow
At What’s Good, we understand that men face unique health challenges that can affect their quality of life. That’s why we offer expert acupuncture and Chinese medicine treatments that can help address these issues and improve overall health and well-being.
Studies have shown that men are often reluctant to seek medical attention, but by ignoring their health concerns, they may be putting themselves at risk for serious health problems down the road. Fortunately, acupuncture and Chinese medicine can be effective tools for addressing men’s health issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, low energy, and erectile dysfunction.
Hormonal imbalances are another health challenge that men face. As men age, their levels of testosterone can decrease, leading to symptoms such as low energy, decreased muscle mass, and erectile dysfunction.
Testosterone is a hormone that is essential for the development and maintenance of male characteristics, such as muscle mass, bone density, and body hair. It also plays a role in regulating mood, energy levels, and sex drive.
When testosterone levels are low, men can experience a range of symptoms that can negatively impact their quality of life. These symptoms can include:
Low energy levels
Increased body fat
Erectile dysfunction
Irritability
