Acupuncture Helps…
Reduce Stress
Manage Pain
Stress impacts digestion, immunity, and reproduction. Studies have shown stress speeds up the aging process, contributes to cardiovascular issues, increases risk of autoimmune diseases and causes digestive deficiencies. Acupuncture alters the body’s experience of stress by triggering the release of hormones that relieve tension and worry, which regenerates our nervous system.
CONDITIONS TREATED: Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, Fatigue, Addiction
Muscles that carry tension or are overused become tight, pull on tendons and put pressure on nerves. Muscle tension leads to pain and limited mobility. Acupuncture alleviates pain by relaxing muscles, increasing blood flow and reducing inflammation.
CONDITIONS TREATED: Chronic & Acute Pain, Inflammation, Rotator Cuff Issues, Sciatica, Neuropathy, Headaches
Women’s Health
Digestive Health
Women’s hormone levels fluctuate on a monthly basis. Pain, irregularity, absence of a period and/or PMS accompanying a women’s cycle are signs that her system is out of balance. Acupuncture and herbal medicine have effectively treated symptoms of hormonal deficiencies and excesses for thousands of years. Since these imbalances in hormonal shifts can be emotionally draining and physically taxing, my goal is to support you and nourish you with acupuncture and Chinese medicine.
CONDITIONS TREATED: Infertility, Menopause Symptoms, Menstrual Irregularities
The digestive system is an integral part of our immune system and affects our sense of overall health. The two biggest contributors to digestive issues are diet and an imbalanced nervous system. Acupuncture and herbal medicine reset this system by increasing blood flow and stimulating the release of hormones to strengthen digestion.
CONDITIONS TREATED: IBS, GERD, Constipation, Diarrhea, Bloating, Indigestion, Crohns Disease, Ulcerative Colitis
General Wellness
Headaches
Restoring the body to its optimal state of wellbeing is simply a matter of keeping it in balance. Chinese medicine helps identify the imbalances in your system and restore balance. If left untreated, chronic imbalances make us susceptible to colds, flus, allergies and fatigue. I help the body restore a balanced state with acupuncture, herbal medicine, nutrition and lifestyle changes.
CONDITIONS TREATED: Vertigo, Common Cold, Flus, Allergies, Asthma, Insomnia
Not all headaches are created equal. Pain associated with a headache can vary by location and sensation. Chinese Medicine recognizes several causes for headaches and has a unique diagnostic process that reveals patterns of imbalance. Learning these patterns allows me to provide you with a customized treatment to address your unique type of headache.
