What We Treat

Conditions We Treat

Acupuncture is simple and powerful. It helps the body return to balance. Often improvement occurs simultaneously among many conditions, not only the one for which you may be seeking treatment. The effects of acupuncture treatment usually include deep relaxation, a feeling of well being, and gradual reduction of the symptoms for which you came for treatment. This means nearly every treatment helps with stress reduction and anxiety, even those addressing musculoskeletal pain. Negative side effects from acupuncture are rarely reported.

Proper treatment seeks to reach the root causes of your illness, not only temporarily relieve the current symptoms, in order to create long lasting results. Patients arriving with a wide range of issues have responded positively to acupuncture treatment. If you are unsure of the condition that you have, consult your physician, however a physician referral is not required to try acupuncture treatment.

Generally the sooner you are treated after the onset of symptoms, the faster acupuncture will provide relief. If you have a chronic condition or have suffered for years, treatment for a longer period of time will likely be required in order to manage your issue.
