| Acupuncture & Herbs |
|
 |
| Acupuncture is a safe and effective treatment for many different health conditions, disorders, and problems. It has also proven to be an invaluable tool in helping people to prevent future health problems. The Acupuncturist, as a trained Herbalist, will often suggest an herbal supplement to assist with the healing process. We use the highest quality herbs available. |

Acupuncture literally means “needle piercing," the practice of inserting very fine needles into the skin to stimulate specific anatomic points in the body (called acupoints) for therapeutic purposes. Along with the usual methods, the practitioner also uses heat, pressure, friction, suction, or impulses of electromagnetic energy to stimulate the points. The acupoints are stimulated to balance the movement of energy (Qi) in the body in order to restore health. |
