Why acupuncture?

Picture
The National Institute of Health & World Health Organization agree:             
                                                         acupuncture is beneficial...
  • when pain medication is reduced or not tolerated 
  • as an integrative way of speeding up recovery time
  • as a way to relax the mind and strengthen the immune system


Healthy individuals will visit an acupuncturist when the seasons change, before or after traveling, or when they just start feeling a little 'under the weather'. 


There is physical evidence that acupuncture has been practiced for 5,000 years.  The classic writings of traditional Chinese acupuncture and herbal medicine go back 2,000 years.
