Our acupuncturists use thin, solid, metallic needles to penetrate your skin at specific places and activate them through hand movements or electrical stimulation. We tailor our treatment to your needs.
 

• When we apply the needle to one or more of the 361 acupuncture points – connected via 12 meridians or “energy pathways” on each side of the body – we balance the energy flow or Qi that stimulates the release of natural chemicals into the brain, spinal cord and muscles to combat the symptom or illness you experience.

• Moreover, we may use infrared heat or moxibustion therapy plus cupping or suction as a part of how acupuncture is done. We employ Tui Na massage to target specific acupoints with our fingers and Gua Sha, which involves stroking your skin with a smooth-edged tool while pressing down to treat chronic pain.

 
Apart from relieving soreness, acupuncture may help improve sleep and emotional well-being because of the biochemical changes that occur after stimulating the central nervous system and the body’s natural healing abilities.
