What is acupuncture?

Acupuncture is part of Traditional Chinese Medicine therapy, a medical system that dates back thousands of years. It uses sterile needles to pierce the skin at predetermined points on the body, stimulating or sedating key areas to achieve optimal health outcomes. Acupuncture is an integrative treatment that addresses the full range of a person’s physical, emotional, spiritual and environmental influences, promoting whole-person health.

What issues can acupuncture treat?

• Chronic pain: Headache, neck and back pain, knee pain, sciatica, carpal tunnel syndrome, fibromyalgia, and rheumatoid arthritis
• Digestive disorders: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), colitis, gastritis, and constipation
• Urogenital disorders: Menstrual irregularity, premenstrual syndrome (PMS), infertility, and menopausal symptoms
• Mental/emotional conditions: Anxiety, stress, fatigue, and insomnia
• Seasonal allergies
• High blood pressure
• Overweight or obesity (with diet and exercise)
• General health and wellness as prevention
• So much more
