Traditional Chinese Medicine

Our bodies are incredible and were made to be able to heal themselves. Traditional Chinese Medicine has been naturally healing the body for over 3,000 years. We are regularly exposed to toxins and stressors, which affect our bodies' homeostasis. Our bodies quickly become unbalanced, which leads to various dysfunctions and illnesses in the body. Acupuncture improves the body’s functions to heal itself by activating specific anatomic sites, which are known as acupuncture points. The most common method used to stimulate acupuncture points is the insertion of fine, single-use sterile needles into the skin. Pressure, heat, or electrical stimulation may further heighten the effects. Other manual therapies, such as cupping and gua sha, also are capable of stimulating these acupuncture points. There is research to confirm Acupuncture’s influences on the nervous system, endocrine system, immune system, cardiovascular system, and the digestive system. Acupuncture can help to resolve pain and improve sleep, digestive function, and overall health.
