Acupuncture

Acupuncture is used to promote, maintain, and restore health by inserting extremely thin, sterile needles in specific, anatomical points throughout the body.  Doing so balances the flow of energy and harmonizes the “Qi” (vital energy) that flows through the pathways (meridians) of the body.  Namely, acupuncture stimulates the nerves, muscles, and connective tissue and bolster the body’s nervous system, endocrine system (hormones), musculoskeletal system, and blood circulation. 

Acupressure

Our certified acupuncturist stimulates the body’s acupuncture points with precision and delicacy without needles to produce similar benefits of acupuncture.
