Acupuncture & Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)

Acupuncture is a traditional healing practice that uses fine, sterile, singleuse needles placed at specific points on the body. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, these points are selected to encourage the smooth flow of Qi and Blood, reduce stagnation and help the body return to balance.

Acupuncture may help with neck, shoulder and back pain, muscle tension, stiffness, sports injuries, headaches, migraines, dizziness, jaw tension, teeth grinding, TMJ discomfort, stress, anxiety, poor sleep, fatigue, digestive concerns, menstrual discomfort, numbness, tingling and recovery from illness or injury.

Each session begins with a personalized health assessment, including tongue and pulse diagnosis when appropriate. Needles may be placed around the area of concern and on other parts of the body to address the underlying pattern, not only the symptoms.

Depending on your needs, treatment may also include electroacupuncture, motor-point acupuncture, fire cupping, Gua Sha, Tuina massage or ear seeds. A personalized treatment plan will be recommended based on your condition, goals and response to care.
