The Essence of Acupuncture
Discover the Benefits of Acupuncture
Acupuncture, deeply rooted in Chinese medicine, pivots on the belief of a flowing energy within our bodies influencing our well-being. Disruptions in this energy flow are viewed as health deterrents. These blockages are resolved by inserting ultra-fine needles into specific points on the body to stimulate muscles and restore the natural energy balance. Recognized as a viable alternative treatment by the WHO, NIH, and FDA, acupuncture has gained acceptance among major healthcare providers and insurance representatives.
What To Expect During An Acupuncture Session?
Typically, an acupuncture session spans around an hour and could also involve electrical stimulation. Post the initial treatment, you might experience some relief, but optimal results are usually observed between the 5th and 10th sessions, particularly for chronic conditions. Many insurance plans include coverage for acupuncture. Should your plan not cover it, our office provides self-pay options.




Acupuncture for Various Health Conditions
Acupuncture is a versatile remedy for an array of health concerns, from arthritis, back pain, operative pain, neck pain, fibromyalgia, carpal tunnel, joint stiffness, tennis elbow, menstrual cramping to headaches. It’s even effective for migraines, sprains, and myofascial pain.
Sports Injuries and Acupuncture
As an athlete, injuries can significantly impact your career progression. Incorporating acupuncture into your recovery regime could expedite healing and help your body revert to its normal state. Even if you’re asymptomatic, acupuncture can aid in injury prevention and strength enhancement.
Acupuncture for Arthritis and Nerve Damage
Acupuncture is an excellent solution for joint pain, including arthritis, by reducing joint inflammation. It’s a safe, effective way to manage arthritis and related conditions. If you’re dealing with nerve damage due to a traumatic injury, viral or bacterial infection, or even nutritional deficiencies and autoimmune diseases, acupuncture could be an effective treatment.
