Our Approach
An approach to care as unique as you!
You probably know deep down that health is more than solving that backache or neck pain or whatever your troublesome healthcare complaint may be.
HEALTH is also putting EASE back in your life. Whether its an aching back, poor digestion, migraine, anxiety, or the insomniac nights that brings you to acupuncture…the side-benefits can be the most valuable experience of Classical and Traditional Acupuncture.
Health is defined differently for everyone, examples include feeling in tune with the best of you, feeling emotionally in sync with yourself and not controlled by external factors, and simply being comfortable in your own skin so that you can be the dynamic, well-balanced, and resilient person that you are.

Acupuncture can also help with consciousness, life path and goals, emotional balance, avoiding surgery, and overall health.
The World Health Organization issued a report entitled “Acupuncture: Review and Analysis of Reports on Controlled Clinical Trials.” This publication lists the diseases, symptoms, or conditions for which acupuncture has been proved through controlled trails to be either an effective treatment, or have some therapeutic effect.
A national research project surveying their patients about their acupuncture experience found the following:
91.5% Reported “disappearance” or “improvement” of symptoms after acupuncture treatment.
84% Visit their MD’s less
79% Used fewer prescription drugs
77.5% Visit their Physical Therapist less
58.5% Visit their psychotherapist less
What are the benefits and how can Acupuncture help you specifically?
Acupuncturists are reluctant to give a specific answer to this question. The reason is that each client is unique, with distinct needs. To say that acupuncture can cure a given ailment for all people would be both inappropriate and untrue.
What can be said is that acupuncture is widely known to relieve pain, and the effects of acupuncture may include improved health for those suffering with chronic illness. Whatever your healthcare concern – pain, digestion, anxiety, sleepless nights, recovery from surgery or injuries, decision making/life direction, relationships, connection, immune support, menopause, you name it – come on in and let’s see if acupuncture can help you.
