What can acupuncture and herbal medicine treat?

Musculoskeletal Issues

In East Asian medical theory, all pain is due to obstruction or stasis, known as bi. Acupuncture clears obstructions and promotes circulation to relieve pain and stimulate the body’s innate healing response.

Acupuncture is the superior choice for:

  • Arthritis

  • Athletic injury/recovery

  • Fibromyalgia

  • Headaches (tension, sinus, migraine)

  • Joint pain/sprains

  • Menstrual cramps

  • Muscle strain

  • Pre/post-surgical recovery

  • Repetitive stress injury

Internal Organ Systems

Our bodies are always working to achieve balance. Acupuncture and herbal medicine are safe, natural, effective methods that work with the body’s resources and bring us to an optimal state of well being.

Acupuncture achieves exceptional results for:

  • Digestive health (abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, diarrhea/loose stool, irregular appetite, reflux, etc.)

  • Menstrual health (irregular cycles, heavy bleeding, painful periods, cysts, fibroids, anovulatory cycles, etc.)

  • Respiratory/circulatory health (allergies, asthma, bronchitis, chronic or acute cough, sinus congestion, etc.)

  • Urogenital health (frequent, urgent, or hesitant urination, discharge, pain or swelling, UTIs, etc.)

Heart, Mind, & Spirit

Our spirit, or shen, is not a separate entity. It is an intricate and vital component that makes us who we are. Restoring, revitalizing, and maintaining the health of our spirit is essential to achieving whole health.

  • Trauma recovery

  • Anxiety

  • Brain fog/confusion

  • Depression

  • Grief

  • Insomnia
