what is acupuncture?
A part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), acupuncture is a medical practice with thousands of years of history. The process involves hair-thin needles being inserted into various locations on the body to activate the nervous system. This natural and non-pharmaceutical healing practice can be used to alleviate various conditions. While acupuncture can be used alone for general well-being and health maintenance, it’s best used in conjunction with other medical interventions. Acupuncture has a wide range of applications, including but not limited to:
chronic pain conditions, such as low back pain
cancer symptom management (neuropathy, nausea, appetitie loss, dry mouth, hot flashes)
fertility issues and management of conditions such as endometriosis
autoimmune-related disorders
stroke rehabilitation
seasonal allergies (hay fever, allergic rhinitis)
various respiratory illnesses
just for relaxation and relieve stress
At our clinic, our acupuncture service focus on both the understanding of a patient’s medical conditions and the spiritual needs of our patients. We differ from traditional acupuncture practices as we apply evidence-based medical research in our practice, setting our experienced clinicians apart from most practitioners.
