Acupuncture Services
Acupuncture is an ancient medical practice that has been used for centuries in the East. It is based on inner harmony and synchronization, with the core belief that the body’s natural healing process can be hijacked by disease and thrown out of balance. By placing needles at certain points along specific meridians, an acupuncturist can redirect vital energy from places where it is abundant to places where it is deficient. This system can increase blood flow, alleviate pain, and help with everyday ailments caused from stress and lifestyle. It is an excellent adjunct to Western medical procedures, does not interfere with medications, and has no adverse side effects.
