A system of healthcare that has been developed in Asia through many millennium. This includes; acupuncture, herbal therapy, moxibustion (the burning of a special herb over specific meridian points), lifestyle and dietary counseling and other forms of treatment that may be used as well.
The goal of Oriental Medicine is to relieve health problems by stimulating the body’s natural healing systems and creating a return to a balanced and harmonious state of body, mind, and spirit.

How can
Acupuncture and
Oriental Medicine

Many people know that pain can be effectively addressed whether from sports injury, chronic issues, or internal pain such as gastrointestinal discomfort or headaches. Other conditions that can be effectively treated include; insomnia, low energy, excessive irritability, anxiety, gynecological disharmonies (irregular, painful periods, infertility and menopausal symptoms etc.), relief from chemotherapy side effects, constipation and bladder problems. People with long term chronic disease and autoimmune disorders can benefit from reduced severity of their symptoms and improved quality of life.

What can you expect
from treatment?

Along with relief of the primary problem, a patient can expect a strengthening of the immune system as communication within the body improves. Flow of blood and energy (increased vascularization) increases in the area of disharmony as well as throughout the body.

A greater sense of well being during and after treatment will bring about better adaptability to stress. Researchers estimate that stress contributes to as many as 80% of all major illnesses.

Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine are a wonderful form of preventative medicine. Many people have also reported increased creativity in their lives following treatment as well as throughout the body which facilitates the healing process.

How many treatments
will I need?

Some people may begin to feel relief from their symptoms within one treatment. Measurable results should be expected by the 4th-6th treatment. Patients have the option to address the root cause of their health issue by pursuing continuing weekly treatments. This will result in longer lasting benefits.
