Acupuncture

 
Acupuncture is a complete medical system originally developed in China more than 5,000 years ago utilizing stainless steel, single use needles to alleviate symptoms of disease. In modern day medicine both in China and abroad acupuncture has been shown to be extremely effective in treating pain (headache, back pain, extremities, etc.), anxiety disorders, depression, allergies, sinus problems, digestive disorders including heartburn, nausea, and many more. Acupuncture is a therapeutic medicine and is most effective when used frequently over a period of time. Much like physical therapy or chemotherapy the effects are cumulative and build off the previous treatments eventually leading to the relief or control of symptoms.

Other Chinese medicine therapies we offer are:
  • TUI-NA Massage
  • TDP infrared heat lamp
  • Cupping
  • Ear seeds
  • Moxibustion
