Acupuncture

 

Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine is a proven and time-tested therapy which is over 3,000 years old. Effective for numerous health conditions, acupuncture is considered by most to be painless and very relaxing. During an acupuncture treatment, very fine, sterile, single-use needles are inserted into specific points to promote balance and healing. Upon your initial visit and prior to the treatment, the practitioner will perform a thorough health history and physical examination to uncover any underlying imbalances and a pattern of disharmony. The practitioner will use this information to develop a customized treatment plan based on your individual health goals and needs. In addition, the acupuncturist may also recommend herbal supplements and make dietary and lifestyle recommendations, providing you with a well-rounded holistic approach to your health concerns. Additional modalities may be used in conjunction with treatment, such as Electro - acupuncture, Moxibustion, Cupping, Gua-Sha, TDP Lamp Treatment and so on.
