Health
and wellness are ongoing journeys…Acupuncture
offers a gentle,
medication-free path towards that goal.Most clients who experience acupuncture regularly find that they
spend less time being ill, are more relaxed
in their daily lives and have a general sense of well-being.
Acupuncture is among the oldest, most commonly used medical
procedures.Thousands of years
old, it is currently used by one-third of the world as a primary
healthcare
system.Long used to promote
general wellness in body, mind and spirit, acupuncture is also employed
to
grant relief from many chronic conditions such as pain, stress, anxiety,
depression, infertility, headache, nausea and allergies.Today it is also recognized as a treatment
for addictions and cravings, for strengthening the immune system and for
increasing general awareness.

What You Can Expect at Your First Acupuncture Visit
Your first visit will be two hours long.At this time, a complete health history
is taken and a Chinese-style physical examination given.Then you will receive your first
acupuncture treatment.Subsequent
visits are one hour in length.
Acupuncture needles are very thin, fine and are made of
stainless steel. Since acupuncture needles are solid, they can be made much
thinner than ordinary medical injection needles (which must be hollow for the
purpose of either putting something into the body, or taking something out of
the body).Acupuncture needles are
only the thickness of two human hairs.All needles used in your acupuncture treatments are
sterile, pre-packaged, disposable, for one-time use.
While some people experience immediate relief from certain
conditions through acupuncture, it can take longer for others.Clients are asked to commit to 6 – 8
acupuncture visits.After the
initial series, we can assess the progress of the treatments.
