The plant/herb studied is Corydalis - an herb long used in Chinese medicine to relieve headaches and back pain. The researchers (Civelli et al) thought that Corydalis worked on morphine receptors but (aha!) it worked on dopamine receptors. This led them to see how important dopamine is in the relief of pain and it worked well for acute pain, pain caused by inflammation/swelling, and even nerve pain. You don't need to be afraid of Chinese herbal prescriptions as long as you are seeing a qualified practitioner of Chinese medicine.

Here’s what people are saying about Dr. Martha Lucas, L.Ac. who for over 15 years has been using Chinese medicine to help people feel and look better:
Best in Denver: I have been to several other practitioners over the course of 9 years and Dr. Lucas is the best acupuncturist in Denver!
What a life saver!: After getting a full work up from a neurologist and being prescribed medications that we were uncomfortable giving our child, we were referred to Dr. Lucas. What a life saver! Our daughter is now feeling much relief and is able to go about her days. We couldn’t be happier with the treatments and Dr. Lucas’ willingness to explain everything.
Sinuses: My sinuses were a mess. But after the needles and Dr. Lucas did their work I’m much, much better!
She gets results! - I’ve been seeing Dr. Lucas for about 5 years for all kinds of needs. I HIGHLY recommend her services! She’s great, knowledgable, and gets results.
Results surpass those of western medicine: I have been getting great results from Martha’s work. I am a disabled vet and her work has surpassed much of the regular western medicine I have experienced. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Gentle with the needles: I have been seeing Dr. Lucas for a bout 3 years. I love and feel a sense of calmness after each session. She is very gentle with the needles and can tell when you are not doing well through her your pulses (pulse diagnosis is her specialty). I highly recommend going to her for everything; it is well worth it. She is a very compassionate person.
From Dr. Lucas - WHY AM I ABLE TO GET YOU SUCH GOOD RESULTS? Because I can give you an expert diagnosis to determine the cause of your symptoms or disease and then TREAT IT!
Chinese medicine treatment works best when your practitioner KNOWS HOW TO MAKE A DIAGNOSIS. Take it from someone who teaches Chinese medicine students from all over the world - the proper diagnosis leads to more effective treatment.
On the other hand - got good health? Acupuncture/Chinese medicine works to maintain that. But if you don't feel the best that you can or as good as you think you should, call me at 303-947-6224 or email me DrMLucas@AcupunctureWoman.com. Even though I feel great, I receive acupuncture every other week whether I need it or not ….
