Acupuncture is new to the western world, but very old in the Far East. Acupuncture has been used in China for at least 3600 years. Today one-third of the world's population (perhaps 2 billion people) depends, in part, on acupuncture for health care. It is used extensively in the People's Republic of China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Korea, Viet Nam, and Japan.
Acupuncture's effectiveness is just being discovered in the United States, Canada and Europe. Acupuncture is the balancing of the body's energy system to bring about healing. It is based on the idea of yin and yang, the Oriental concept of opposites balancing in oneness. The Chinese theorize that energy, called "qi" (pronounced chee), flows through the body.
Normally, "qi" flows in a free and balanced manner along defined channels inside the body and on the surface of the skin. To the Chinese, this means there is balance of yin and yang resulting in proper function of body and mind. In the West we call this "homeostasis." The result is pain-free good health!

No doctor ever cured anything.
What we do is to assist you in removing the interferences to your body's own natural ability to heal itself.
No matter what your condition, age, or what you have been told by other doctors, we may be able to help.
For acute conditions we may see you every day for a time.
For most conditions, however, a three times a week schedule is best.
Less frequent visits can be arranged but it means it is going to take longer to get results.
For patients coming long distances more than one visit per day can be scheduled.
