How Acupuncture Works
Acupuncture is based on Chinese Medicinal principles, which view the body as an interconnected system of vessels that connect to circulate blood, nutrients and energy from food and air to the whole body. When proper circulation does not flow properly the body becomes imbalanced and can lead to pain, illness and emotional distress. Acupuncture helps restore balance by:
- Stimulating Specific Points: Thin, sterile needles are strategically placed on the body to promote proper circulation.
- Enhancing Blood Supply: Improved blood flow promotes healing and reduces inflammation.
- Balancing Hormones: Acupuncture can regulate the endocrine system, supporting hormonal health.
- Reducing Stress: Treatments promote relaxation and help alleviate stress's physical and emotional effects.
Conditions We Treat
At Family Acupuncture, we provide treatments for a wide range of conditions, including:
Additional Therapies
The scope of Chinese medicine involves more than just using needles. We have additional techniques that act as a great complement to improve circulation, reduce inflammation, soften tissues, break up knots or adhesions, and reduce pain. These techniques include electro-acupuncture, and Chinese herbal medicine.
Electro-Acupuncture
Electro-acupuncture uses a machine to introduce a gentle electric current to an inserted needle. The current stimulates the needle and can substantially improve blood flow, activate various chemicals in the brain and reduce pain more than the needle alone.
The Benefits of Acupuncture
