At Points for Wellness, we have been providing acupuncture care for the Santa Cruz, Soquel area since 2006.
Acupuncture was first developed over 2000 years ago and has long been used as a treatment in Chinese medicine to restore the balance of "qi, " also know as the life force energy.
It involves the careful insertion of fine needles into precise points along the body's meridians in order to treat illness and restore wellness.
Proven by Western science, the location of the points contain an abundance of blood vessels, nerve and lymph tissue which is why these hundreds of points have specific and unique functions to help heal the body.

Acupuncture stimulates the flow of energy and blood, but cannot "give" anything to your body.
If deficient organ systems are contributing to your health problems, acupuncture in and of itself may not be enough.
Herbal medicine can have a direct impact on your metabolic system, your endocrine system, your immune system and other systems which may be malfunctioning and contributing to a pathologic state.
Herbal medicine can nourish, support, increase and enhance your organ systems.
We prescribe herbal blends that work synergistically to promote healing and balance for specific conditions.

Just like Chinese medicine, functional medicine is grounded in finding the root cause, not by simply treating symptoms.
Functional Medicine addresses more than just where the issue is in your body but how the issue manifests throughout your body.
The goal is to find the underlying mechanism and how we can address the root cause to effectively get results.
It does not require the presence of disease in order to have an imbalance, just as patients can feel unwell while still presenting as "normal" in lab testing or medical evaluation.
