We offer Traditional Acupuncture based on the theories and techniques of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and has been used as a method for balancing the body’s energy (Qi) to prevent or cure diseases and disorders through the process of inserting very fine, sterile needles into carefully-selected points along the body to: stimulate the flow of energy and blood, and to remove blockages so that the Qi can be dispersed and regulated. By stimulating the body’s various systems, Traditional Acupuncture can help to resolve pain, improve sleep and digestive function as well as promote a general sense of well being.
