What is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture started more than 2,000 years ago in China and is one of the oldest forms of medicine still in use today. It promotes physical and emotional health, prevents illness and treats many medical conditions. With the insertion of extremely thin, sterile needles, acupuncture stimulates the nervous system, causing the release of endorphins, neurotransmitters and hormones, and increases blood flow. This affects immune reactions and other systems, energizing the body’s natural healing abilities.

A long-term health care solution using acupuncture and an intuitive, holistic assessment. Comfort your body, lift your spirit and ease your mind.
