Acupuncture promotes relaxation and a return to body and mind balance. Believed to have been
developed in China, acupuncture consists of inserting fine needles into the body surface to impact the body’s physiological function.

To gain an understanding of how best to treat you and not just your symptoms, your acupuncturist
will ask you questions regarding your lifestyle, emotions, sleeping patterns, eating habits, and
medical history, as well as conduct a thorough examination to assess the overall functioning of your body.

Treatment needles are typically placed on the body for approximately 15-30 minutes. Depending on
your condition, treatments may include heat therapy (Moxa, LED lamp), Tuina massage, Cupping, Hot Stone Massage, Electro-Acupuncture, and lifestyle advice.

Acupuncture needles are approved medical devices, very thin and easily inserted with little or
no discomfort. The most commonly described sensation is a light pinch, warm and tingling, or light pressure.
