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. <schedule an appointment>
Acupuncture is used to regulate or correct the
flow of Qi in order to bring the body back to
balance.

Disease can be caused
by the inhibited flow of Qi in our bodies.
Acupuncture works to restore and balance the flow of blocked Qi . Health is more than the absence of disease. It is the
free and harmonious flow of Qi which translates into a
positive feeling of well-being and vitality from the body,
mind and spirit.
Acupuncture is safe and
without side-effects. Its actions are regulatory,
encouraging the body to make natural changes from within.
Acupuncture can treat acute and chronic conditions and can
help in many situations where Western medicine may have
limited solutions.
Acupuncture not only treats
illness, but can also prevent disease and help build
the immune system. It can help increase energy,
preserve youth and promote longevity.
