Acupuncture is one of my preferred ways to treat your whole being, body, and spirit. It’s a versatile method to address numerous ailments quickly and effectively. I’m always amazed at how well patients respond. Within just a few treatments I’ve been able to turn around some of the most debilitating illnesses like long-standing insomnia and chronic knee pain.

Peer-reviewed research has shown that acupuncture leads to an increase in blood flow and endorphin release which leads to pain relief and tissue healing.
Acupuncture may be helpful for those suffering from several pain conditions including back and neck pain, knee pain associated with osteoarthritis, and postoperative pain.
Acupuncture can also help relieve joint pain associated with the use of aromatase inhibitors, which are drugs used in people with breast cancer.
What are pathway meridians & how does acupuncture therapy work?
Acupuncture therapy is a traditional healing method that has been utilized for thousands of years to help balance energy, relieve pain, and stimulate healing. It involves inserting sterile needles into the skin at specific acupuncture points that are located along the body’s acupuncture pathways (meridians).
Acupuncture meridians are like powerful, laminar rivers running through the body. These pathways carry energy to your vital organs. Symptoms like tight muscles, injuries, or stress can cause dams in the river. By needling into these areas, dams are removed, and the flow of energy becomes balanced once again. Balancing the body’s energy can lead to an overall sense of well-being, improved mood and energy, better sleep, and more natural digestive health.
