The Journey Begins
with using acupuncture as a modality in the treatment of the body's energetic imbalances

How Acupuncture Works
Acupuncture is the insertion of very thin, hair-like needles into small depressions on the skin. By activating proper circulation through channels, or internal pathways, acupuncture interrupts patterns of illness. Acupuncture has been used for over 2000 years, thus having proven to be very effective in a wide variety of acute and chronic health related disorders, as well as for preventive health care.

What you may experience during acupuncture
Extremely fine, hair-thin, flexible needles are placed at specific points on the energetic pathways leading to the organs, muscles, and nerves of the body. When the needles are inserted, you may experience a sensation of tingling or warmth. Some people feel no sensation at all.
