My goal with each patient is to help improve their health and well-being and to help people get well naturally without the unnecessary use of drugs and surgery. Acupuncture is a component of a comprehensive natural health care system called, "Traditional Chinese Medicine" which has been used in Asian countries for thousands of years to preserve health and diagnose, treat, and prevent illness.
Very thin, sterile, disposable medical needles are inserted through the skin to produce physiological effects with the intent of relieving a health condition or symptom caused by an internal imbalance. The general theory is that proper physiological function and health depend on the circulation of nutrients, substances, and energy called Qi through a network of "channels" or "meridians."
This network connects every organ and part of the body, providing balance, regulation, and coordination of physiological processes. Acupuncture treats health conditions by stimulating "acu-points". Stimulation of the appropriate acu-points through acupuncture treatments helps to restore sufficient, continuous, and even flow of Qi and other nutrients throughout the body, restoring health and balance to the body while relieving pain and other symptoms.
