Are You Experiencing Any of These Problems?
・Your hair has started to fall out more easily
・Your hair is becoming thinner
・New fine hairs grow but soon fall out
・Sensation is reduced in the areas of hair loss
・The thinning areas of your scalp feel different when touched
As long as the hair follicles have not completely disappeared, hair continues to grow every day.
Therefore, it is important not only for hair to grow, but also for the newly growing fine hairs to remain without falling out.
The areas where hair is falling out are numb.
When you gently rub the scalp with your fingertips, you may notice that sensation is reduced in the areas where the hair is thinning or has fallen out.
At our clinic, repeated shallow acupuncture treatment is applied to the scalp to help the numb areas recover.
We believe that when the scalp recovers, the hair will stop falling out.
In Traditional East Asian Medicine, hair is controlled by the Kidney and is considered to reflect changes in Blood Qi.
For this reason, treatment to tonify the Kidney and nourish Blood is provided together with acupuncture treatment of the scalp.
We also provide dietary advice to support Blood Qi.
Recommended foods include lean red meat, seaweed, burdock root, carrots, tomatoes, and dark green vegetables.
It is necessary to eat rice grains at all three meals.
We believe that the condition will not improve with bread or pasta instead of rice.
When washing the hair, we recommend using only warm water without shampoo.
This is because shampoo may cause hair to fall out in certain areas.
Hair loss resembling that of Kakuei Tanaka is considered a separate issue.
