Acupuncture & Oriental Medicine
Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese healing art that has been around for over 2500 years and has been used successfully by literally billions of people. The basic theory of acupuncture is that certain areas of the body become blocked or stagnated and this can lead to pain and illness. Acupuncture treats a variety of conditions through the shallow insertion of sterile, disposable needles into the skin to elicit a response from the nervous system as well as the immune system. When the nervous system is returned to a balanced state it promotes a feeling of well-being; patients often find treatments to be deeply relaxing. Acupuncture can also relieve muscular tightness and muscular spasms that occur after an injury. A common reaction of the body after an injury is called ‘guarding’ where the body becomes hardened and ridged around the area of injury to protect from further injury. Acupuncture can soften the muscles and help the body to relax around the injury so healing can occur more quickly. Free 15-minute consultation offered with first visit and Senior Discounts Available.

Tui Na Massage/Adjunct Therapy to Acupuncture
Tui na (pronounced “too wee nah”) translates into “push-grasp” in English and its origins date back to the Shang Dynasty in 1700 BC. Tui na is commonly an adjunct therapy to acupuncture and involves pressing, kneading and rolling massage techniques to increase circulation along acupuncture meridians or muscle groups. “Today tui na is very popular in China in large hospitals as well as small clinics.
