Acupuncture is the insertion of fine needles into the skin at certain points on the body.
Each treatment is individualized and based on your unique set of symptoms or concerns.
At Acupuncture Therapy Clinic, we offer both local and distal styles of acupuncture treatments.
Local acupuncture treatments allow the needles to be placed in the local area being affected.
Distal or far-distancing needling is done by placing the needles away from the area being affected.
The needles are not placed into the affected areas and are instead placed into the arms, hands, legs, feet, scalp, and/or ears.

According to the Ancient Chinese texts, Chinese physicians discovered relationships between the stimulation of certain acupuncture points to various diseases.
For example, for shoulder pain, stimulation of a particular acupuncture point results in a certain type of relief.
At Acupuncture Therapy Clinic, this type of evidence speaks volumes.
Some records indicate that acupuncture and Chinese Medicine is up to 5,000 years old.
At the minimum, this medicine is 2,000 years old.
To us, the age and history of his medicine does matter because it means that these relationships (between acupuncture points and various diseases) have had hundreds of years to develop, mature, and evolve.
