About Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine technique that involves inserting fine needles into specific points on the body to restore balance and promote natural healing. Our certified acupuncturists use this time-tested method to treat various health conditions and improve overall wellness.
Treatment Process
Initial Assessment
Your acupuncturist will conduct a comprehensive evaluation, including pulse diagnosis and tongue examination, to understand your body's energy flow (Qi).
Treatment Plan
A personalized treatment plan will be created based on your specific condition and Traditional Chinese Medicine diagnosis.
Acupuncture Treatment
Fine, sterile needles are gently inserted into specific acupuncture points. You may feel a mild sensation, but the process is generally comfortable and relaxing.
Rest Period
You'll rest with the needles in place for 20-30 minutes, allowing the treatment to take effect.
Follow-up Care
Your acupuncturist will provide recommendations for lifestyle adjustments and may suggest herbal supplements to support your treatment.
