HOW DOES ACUPUNCTURE WORK?
-
Acupuncture stimulates nerve pathways in the body which trigger an increase of endorphins, oxygen, blood and nutrients to areas that need healing.
-
Health in Chinese medicine is equated with highly oxygenated, nutrient-rich blood moving through the body while maintaining proper functioning of all of the organs especially the heart.
​
ACUPUNCTURE IS HOLISTIC MEDICINE
Acupuncture and Chinese medicine are holistic medical therapies that assist your body to heal itself with a focus on:
-
Treating the root cause of your condition rather than just suppressing symptoms
-
Assessing each person's unique imbalances and providing individualized treatments

I think that it’s a combination of the actual acupuncture and the fact that I trust you completely while you’re working on me, so the positive changes are able to happen." - Judy H.
