Determined to See

Acupuncture

Written By: ingridricks

As those of you who follow this blog know, I’m a huge fan of acupuncture to treat RP — as long as the practitioner has been trained to effectively treat RP and other degenerative eye diseases and has a solid track record of success.  It’s made a huge difference in my life. I now feel confident that as long as I continue with my overall diet and lifestyle changes and    undergo five days of acupuncture treatment two or three times a year, I will be able to maintain my remaining eyesight and continue to see.

According Dr. Andy Rosenfarb, the acupuncture eye specialist who has been treating me for the past year, acupuncture works by increasing stimulation to key acupuncture points around the eyes — which in turn increases blood flow to the eyes, stimulates the ocular nerve cells and promotes cellular detoxification. He explains that improving circulation and stimulating optic nerve and/or photoreceptor nerve-cell activity can result in functional improvement and long-term preservation of vision.
