Q How does the clinic treat a lump in the throat?
A We first screen for danger signs, then examine the tension in the neck and shoulders alongside the state of the abdomen. Next, acupuncture releases the stiffened tension around the throat while we restore the stomach's downward force and the over-sensitised regulation. Breathing, meal timing and the throat-clearing habit are adjusted to prevent relapse.
Detailed Answer
For those in whom tension dominates, we focus on the neck, shoulders and breathing. Where reflux dominates, restoring the stomach's emptying takes a larger share. Most cases combine the two according to your state.
Korean Medicine Clinic Perspective
The throat is where the result shows; the cause usually sits elsewhere. That is why repeatedly stimulating the throat alone does not last. Narrowing down where it began is half the treatment.
