Acupuncture is one of the oldest, most commonly used forms of medicine in the world. Originating in China more than 4,000 years ago, acupuncture is currently one of the most widely researched, practiced, and respected forms of complementary medicine in the U.S.

According to Chinese Medicine, your overall health is determined by the quality of the Qi (energy) flow through the natural pathways of your body. Acupuncture uses a variety of techniques, including placing very thin sterile needles into specific points on the body, to stimulate and improve your Qi flow.

The many benefits of this type of therapy include:

Acupuncture is a comprehensive medical modality which can treat a wide variety of issues. Common complaints that generally respond well to acupuncture treatment include (but is NOT limited to):

Acupuncture is a highly individualized treatment. With a background in Chinese medicine, the licensed acupuncturist is trained to garner information about your state of balance by feeling the pulse and looking at your tongue. The intake appointment is up to 90 minutes and follow up appointments are up to 60 minutes. During this time, you relax on the table with the needles in for 20-30 minutes.

Sports Acupuncture is used in the treatment of injuries as well as musculoskeletal and constitutional imbalances, and is often effective for relieving muscle pain and spasm and improving circulation to tense or injured tissues. Within our clinic we commonly find acupuncture especially effective for tendon and ligament sprain/strains and chronic injuries that have been poorly responsive to other types of treatment.

According to basic Traditional Chinese Medical (TCM) theory, health is viewed as a balance between opposing forces (e.g. yin and yang) in the body. Forces that disrupt this balance are seen to move the body away from health and toward disease and poor function. Herbal medicines, diet, acupuncture, and exercise are all seen as ways to balance these forces to promote health and in the case of athletes, to improve performance. The body’s innate ability to self-heal is activated when the body is in balance.
