ACUPUNTURE
Acupuncture is an ancient form of Chinese medicine involving the insertion of solid acupuncture needles into the skin at specific points on the body to achieve a therapeutic effect. It is used to encourage natural healing, improve mood and energy, reduce or relieve pain, and improve function of affected areas of the body.
We believe in the benefits of this ancient medicine combined with a more modern
neuro-anatomical perspective.
Our acupuncture treatment can include:
-
Acupuncture for pain (such as headaches and muscular injuries)
-
Acupuncture for physical conditions (such as tendonitis, fibromyalgia, and arthritis)
