Acupuncture and Migraine
Acupuncture is very effective for helping to reduce the frequency and intensity of migraines. I can say with certainty that for female patients, supporting the treatments with a very highly nourishing protein and green diet is essential. I have found over the years that the depleting nature of the menstrual cycle, the overtaxation of modern life and most patient's consistently poor diet contribute greatly to migraines.

GERD and Heartburn
One of the best chinese herbal formulas for this condition is Ban Xia Xie Xin Tang. There are other formulas that address this well, however I found through my teacher (Steve Kaufman) that this formula is tops.
This would be used in addition to acupuncture and diet changes.
