Couples with male partners who used ma*****na ≥1 time per week during preconception had a greater risk of SAB compared with no male ma*****na use.

Frequent ma*****na use has been associated with poor semen quality. Though evidence is mixed, most studies show deleterious effects. There are no studies of male ma*****na use and adverse pregnancy outcomes. We evaluated the association between male ma*****na use and spontaneous abortion (SAB).

Acupuncture has long been used to treat motor dysfunctions as well as neurological disorders like parkinson’s. The two studies in the link below suggest that acupuncture might not necessarily directly reverse brain cell damage or help increase the production of dopamine but it could very well be enhancing communication networks between brain cells. That’s why, whether you suffer from parkinson’s or not, you feel SO GOOD when you leave the office. If you do suffer from parkinson’s, acupuncture could be so very helpful to you! https://parkinsonsnewstoday.com/2019/06/05/acupuncture-may-help-prevent-motor-symptoms-mice-data-suggest/

If any of you are like me (and probably most of the world), stress really affects my health (which then affects all areas of my life) and I find it hard to find ways to calm my overthinking mind and my poor body trying to keep up with a demanding schedule. From a former patient, Marla, in response to her experience with Island Acupuncture, “Fantastic— I have really made progress with my migraines and stress level. Dr. Gila and her assistant are by far the most experienced and understanding team. I would highly recommend Dr. Gila for treatment and relaxation techniques.” Let Dr. Gila heal you so you can carry on without stress affecting your everyday!

“I was vacationing in Coronado for the Summer and I had a problem with my knee. I thought I wouldn’t be able to golf. I went to see Dr. Peled and had 5 treatments of acupuncture. The last treatment was a week ago and I’m walking 18 holes of golf 3 days a week with no pain.” Don’t let pain hold you back from doing the things you love to do. Book an appointment with Island Acupuncture!

"If you want the best from an acupuncturist, Gila Peled is the person you need to see. She is not only highly qualified in the field, she also has a personal warmth and nurturing demeanor that adds so much to her treatments. Add to that her cheerful, positive attitude and you have it all!" Happy Sunday, everyone!
