An acupuncture treatment is a form of medicine that can be a combination of physical, psychological, and spiritual healing. In Chinese Medicine, an illness occurs because there is an imbalance in the body. Acupuncture, which is the use of fine needles inserted into the body, is used to bring the body back into balance. In this process, Chinese herbs assist. Acupuncture is based on the meridian system, which is the theory of energy flow in the body.

One is usually lying down either face up or facedown for treatment. There is either little or no pain at the insertion of the needles. After the needles are inserted the patient lies with them in for approximately thirty minutes. Many people consider a treatment to be relaxing.

Typically after 1 to 10 treatments of acupuncture and taking herbs an individual feels a lessening or elimination of symptoms. Individuals may also notice their mood is more stable, they sleep better, and they have a calmer spirit.

We provide Acupuncture on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays.
