Can acupuncture cure 20% kidney function? 20% kidney function means kidneys have been damaged severely. In addition to dialysis, alternative remedies are much favored by kidney disease patients. Acupuncture is one of the alternatives and has been proven to be effective for kidney problems. Let’s see how acupuncture helps 20% kidney function.
We all know 20% kidney function is a worse condition. It means kidneys have been damaged seriously and the rest healthy kidney functions are no longer able to help people maintain a normal life. In this case, no treatment can cure damaged kidneys at all.
Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese treatment. Although it cannot cure kidney disease, it is helpful in helping people live a full life. Acupuncture treats kidney disease through inserting long needles into patients’ acupoints. These acupoints are closely related with human internal organs and through acupuncture, human blood circulation will be improved, which can increase the blood flow in kidneys.
Declined kidney function is associated with decreased glomerular filtration rate (GFR). When blood flow increases in kidneys, GFR increases slightly. For this, acupuncture is beneficial for kidney failure patients, but it cannot cure kidney disease and 20% kidney function. However, acupuncture is not suitable for kidney failure patients because it works slowly and patients have no enough time to wait for the treatment effects due to very serious conditions.
Immunotherapy combines Chinese medicine and advanced medical technology. It treats kidney failure from the root. It can not only control kidney disease but also recover kidney function. Besides, many kidney failure patients have avoided dialysis effectively. Compared with acupuncture, immunotherapy is more effective and suitable for kidney failure patients.
