Does Acupuncture Work?

Of course it does!  The media is full of stories related to acupuncture these days.  Acupuncture research is on the rise.  Doctors, Physical Therapists, Speech Pathologists and every kind of health care practitioner are referring their patients out to acupuncture.  Sure, there’s some unflattering stories out there, there are stories that are scary and unflattering about all of these other types of practitioners I just listed as well.

Is Acupuncture Safe?

You can be assured that acupuncture when done by qualified, licensed practitioners is quite safe and relatively painless.  These types of questions and concerns are just the type of thing I would love to discuss with you, give me a call today.

I am a committed Acupuncturist

I am committed to providing my patients with the highest standard of care based on an attitude of gentleness, warmth, professionalism, and respect.

Using a combination of acupuncture, Chinese herbs, nutritional therapy, and various stress reduction techniques you can overcome chronic, nagging health problems that can not be effectively addressed using other means.

By creating a treatment plan that addresses each individual’s needs and includes various modalities of Oriental Medicine, I strive to treat not only your symptoms, but also the root of illness, and thus restore the balance in your life.

Using a combination of safe, natural, and effective therapies, I can assist you in overcoming health concerns that stem from emotional and physical causes. Instead of just suppressing symptoms, my goal is build a healing relationship with you so that together, you can get the benefits of health at your core and make genuine, long-lasting changes that will benefit you for life.

From your first appointment onward, you will never feel rushed through the health-care process. Education is an essential dimension of healing and I pride myself on being a knowledgeable resource for your questions and concerns. My goal is to create an environment that will allow for deep trust and relaxation, integrity, and the potential for genuine transformation.

If you have questions or would like more information, you are welcome to call me for a free 15 minute consultation at my office.
