What is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture is a tried and true healing modality that goes back 2000 years. It is based on the idea that there are networks of meridian pathways that can be used to treat the entire body. Meridians pertain to many different regions of the body; which include our internal organs, our muscles and sinews, and central nervous system. These meridians, or channels as they are also known, allow the practitioner to influence the movement of Qi and blood in these delicate pathways. By stimulating specific points along these pathways we can harmonize and balance homeostasis, either by nourishing or draining these points. Acupuncture is an increasingly relied upon healing modality due to its versatility in treating a variety of symptoms that can sometimes allude more modern forms of treatment. With regular treatment you are stimulating your body's own healing mechanisms and strengthening your immune system.

Acupuncture can treat:

  • Pain

  • Headaches

  • Cough and cold symptoms

  • GI disorders

  • Sleep disorders

  • Menstrual issues

  • Fertility

  • Emotional issues

  • Symptoms due to chronic disease

What to expect

Acupuncture needles are thin filiform needles that are much smaller than what we may know from the doctor. In fact, it is possible to fit up to 10 acupuncture needles into a hypodermic needle. During your treatment, you may fall asleep, which is a good thing, as it allows for the body to begin it's healing process. After your initial treatment you can expect to feel relaxed and may notice your symptoms subtly change in 24 to 48 hours.
