Pain Management
Pain
manifests in many ways—the constant ache of arthritis
(long-term, chronic pain), the shooting spasms of
a sprained ankle (short-term, acute pain), the frequent
discomfort of carpal tunnel (sporadic pain from overuse).
While some of the causes of today’s discomforts
may be modern, practitioners have treated pain with
acupuncture for centuries. These ancient medics explained
that the body has channels of energy, called meridians,
which run in regular patterns throughout the body
and over its surface. An obstruction in the movement
of these energy rivers is like a dam that backs up
the whole system. Acupuncture uses fine, precisely
placed needles to unblock the obstructions and to
reestablish regular flow through the meridians. More

Women's Health
From menstruation to childbearing, menopause,
and beyond, women have a lifetime of gynecological considerations
and concerns. While Western medicine offers solutions
to many common problems, there are just as many symptoms
that have no clear explanation or origin. In multiple
medical studies, medical acupuncture, with its whole-body
approach to women’s wellness, has been proven to
provide solutions where there seem to be none. More
