Acupuncture Services

Acupuncture: Acupuncture involves the insertion and manipulation of acupuncture needles into specific points along channels or meridians in the body, influencing its blood flow to help treat a variety of conditions or diseases. The acupuncture channels are thought of as pathways that connect and correspond to each other and our body’s organs to create an intricate, energetic network. Chinese or East Asian medicine is a system that was developed and documented over 2,500 years ago and includes acupuncture and moxibustion as well as herbal medicine, tui na, qi gong exercises, and nutrition. Acupuncturists continue to conduct research and find relevance for this ancient medical practice to help treat conditions commonly found in modern times.
