Acupuncture

Find Balance & Wellness with Acupuncture
Book an Appointment
Acupuncture works by stimulating and affecting the Qi energy that flows through the meridians of the body.  Most symptoms (for example, pain or fatigue) can be understood as Qi energy not flowing smoothly, or being disregulated. 

Throughout each day and night in a cyclical pattern, Qi energy flows through the body and has specific tasks and functions which keep the body healthy, energized, and upright.  If this energy flow is cramped or stagnated in one place, then that stagnation not only affects the local area and function, but has a cascading effect throughout the body, mind, and spirit.  This is why we look to treat the root cause rather than chasing symptoms.

​Acupuncture is an effective treatment for: 
  • Neck, back, & joint pain
  • Chronic pain
  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • PTSD
  • Digestive Problems
  • Sleep & insomnia 
  • Headaches
  • Personal Growth
  • Support moving through terminal illness or life transitions
  • Many more symptoms and ailments - please inquire for more detail

We must treat the body, the mind, and the spirit as a whole, and when we do this, people can reach a full and deep sense of health and wellbeing. ​
What to Expect in an Acupuncture Treatment
One of the aspects of Classical Five-Element Acupuncture that makes it so unique and so powerful is that each person is always treated in a individualized manner.

​Twenty people could come in with lower back pain, and each one would receive a totally different treatment.

​
We take the necessary time to get to know you on a much deeper level than a typical health care practitioner - this allows us to tailor each treatment to exactly what you want and need. 


Your first appointment is about 90 minutes. It will entail an intake, a full diagnosis, a physical exam, and the acupuncture treatment. 

Treatments will typically last from 45 minutes to an hour, and consist of both acupuncture and moxabustion (the burning of a medicinal herb on the acupuncture point).

Frequency of Treatments
The frequency of treatment is just as important as the quality of treatment.

You can receive the best acupuncture treatment in the world, but if you don't have the consistency of regular acupuncture treatments to support your mind, body, and spirit, you will not receive the full benefit.

Acupuncture works by building upon the previous treatments - just as we start building a house by pouring the foundation and methodically building up from there. 

While acupuncture can often have seemingly miraculous results, it is not a silver bullet. Consistent, high-quality treatment helps to ensure that our clients build and maintain higher levels of bountiful, vital health.
