Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a gentle and effective therapy rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that helps restore balance within the body and promote natural healing. By inserting fine, sterile needles at specific points along the body’s energy pathways (known as meridians), acupuncture encourages the smooth flow of Qi (energy) and blood—reducing pain, easing tension, and supporting optimal function of the body’s systems.

How Acupuncture Works

Modern research shows that acupuncture influences the nervous system, circulation, and immune function. It helps release endorphins (the body’s natural pain-relieving chemicals), modulates stress hormones, and promotes parasympathetic (rest-and-digest) activity. Many people find acupuncture deeply relaxing, often leaving each session with a sense of calm, mental clarity, and improved well-being.

Conditions Acupuncture Can Support

Acupuncture can be beneficial for a wide range of concerns, including:

• Pain and Injury: back pain, neck tension, headaches, migraines, arthritis, and muscle strain

• Digestive Health: bloating, IBS, nausea, and slow digestion

• Hormonal and Reproductive Health: PMS, painful periods, fertility support, and menopausal symptoms

• Stress, Anxiety, and Sleep Issues: promoting nervous system regulation and emotional balance

• Immune and Energy Support: fatigue, allergies, or chronic inflammation

Whether your goal is to address a specific condition or to support overall health and stress resilience, acupuncture can be tailored to your individual needs.

What to Expect

Each treatment is customized to your body and goals. Very fine, single-use needles are gently inserted and typically left in place for 20–30 minutes while you relax. Most patients describe the experience as calming and restorative—many even fall asleep during the session. Depending on your concern, a series of sessions may be recommended to achieve lasting results.
