What Dr. Barnett Can Do For You
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is based upon the premise of balance between the body’s core organs and the structure (Yin) and function (Yang) within each organ. The relationship between these organs and the Yin/Yang within each organ is not completely understood, but scientific evidence has come to support many of the ancillary assertions of TCM such as the direct impact that specific naturally occurring compounds have on the regulation of the organ’s activities.
The use of acupuncture can assist the restoration of lung function. ​Traditional Chinese Medicine that targets lung Yin and acupuncture has been improving patients quality of life.*
What To Expect
Statistical Study of the Herbal Treatment for Chronic Lung Diseases
Research
A statistical study was conducted by a Statistics graduate student from Stanford University to further understand the effectiveness of an herbal product in treating degenerative pulmonary diseases including Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Emphysema, Chronic Bronchitis, Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF), and Sarcoidosis.
​
Scope of the study: A total of 1,721 patients who used the herbal formula, were studied for their responses to the treatment. The patients were divided into 2 groups.
-
Group I included 957 patients who used a 3-day treatment
-
Group II included 764 patients who continued the treatment for over 2 weeks​
​​
All patients were contacted via telephone with 2 random phone calls. All patients not reached in 2 phone calls were excluded from data analysis.
​
All patients were surveyed for FEV 1/ FEV6 levels, peak flow, oxygen saturation, symptom improvement, oxygen volume (liter/min), and ease of breathing on a scale of 1 (very difficult) to 10 (easy).
