Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a common healing choice for those suffering from:

  • Pain (anywhere in the body)
  • Insomnia
  • Stress
  • Anxiety
  • Digestive disorders
  • Allergies
  • Respiratory illness
  • Menopausal symptoms and so much more!

Practiced for thousands of years, acupuncture involves the virtually painless medical practice of inserting thin sterile needles into specific points in the body to initiate a healing response. The success of acupuncture is attributed to the acupuncturist’s ability to access the vital energies of the body that are not in balance causing various disharmonies such as pain or illness. From a western medical standpoint acupuncture initiates a number of physiological changes such as releasing endorphins to combat pain and cortisol to reduce inflammation, etc. Fundamentally, acupuncture treats the root of the problem, not just the symptom. 

It is important to note that acupuncture is not only for pain, although highly effective in treating pain anywhere in the body, it is also an effective choice in treating a variety of other issues. Here are just a few of the ailments that acupuncture can treat: back pain, neck pain, joint pain, headaches, digestive disorders, anxiety, insomnia, allergies, reproductive issues, etc. Also, acupuncture is backed by many worldwide and U.S. based organizations. For instance, The World Health Organization and The American Cancer Society advocate the effectiveness of acupuncture.

If pain or health issues have been a persistent hurdle in your life and you desire a holistic choice to health management, than acupuncture may be the answer you are looking for.

Cupping

Cupping is the use of suction on specific areas of the body. I heat the air in a small glass cup, which creates a vacuum as the air cools. When the cup is applied to the body it gently pulls the underlying tissue. Cupping in combination with acupuncture can enhance treatments for sprains and strains, especially in the back, shoulders and legs; it can help respiratory problems like cough, and even remedy symptoms of the common cold.
