Retinitis Pigmentosa

Acupuncture is one of the better therapies for treating RP. There is the possibility of slowing down, and even stopping the progress of the disease. Our experience shows that treatment alone is not enough for the benefits of treatment to be maintained, and that significant changes in life style are needed to prevent its return. Through years of experience I amin a position to give advice on the most important aspects of life style.


Some people respond very well to treatment, while others only respond slightly. It seems to be a bit of a lottery. As a rule of thumb, one can hope to bring back the sight to the state it was about 2 years ago, but no more.
