Understanding Ancient Wisdom can lead us to a better understanding of health and wellness in modern times. Chinese Acupuncture is a 5,000 year old medical tradition that brings balance to the systems of the body, mind, and spirit.

After a systematic diagnosis, Chinese Acupuncture uses needles, prescribed herbs, and heat to help bring the mind, body, and spirit into a state of balance. With proper treatment, stress is reduced, the immune system is boosted, and healing more naturally occurs.

Chinese Medicine can provide lasting relief from stress, fatigue, inflammation such as arthritis, chronic pain, nausea, allergies, and other common ailments. Chinese Medicine can aid in recovery from illness, speed the healing process, and bring a person to greater awareness of their mind and body.

After an initial health interview, we will work to clear the body’s meridians to aid in the smooth flow of your innate energy (Qi). We will then develop a treatment plan based on your body’s diagnostic signals and monitor your progress.

We will prescribe Chinese herbal formulas that will help tonify, balance, and allow your body to replenish its reserves. Those formulae will be adjusted over time, based on your response.

Classical acupuncture addresses the whole body-mind and is meant to balance the individual based on their innate constitution and disposition, allowing the body and mind to function optimally.

Once the body-mind is in balance and the Qi of the body is moving smoothly, the body is often able to better address ailment on its own. Acupuncture is often an excellent complementary form of medicine to add to a treatment regimen for serious illness, alongside allopathic treatments.

We do not view acupuncture to be an alternative to Western medicine, but instead leverage our Western medical training to understand what acupuncture can accomplish well, and how it can fit into a comprehensive approach to health, drawing upon the best practices available today.
