About This Treatment
Acupuncture is a time-tested traditional Chinese medicine practice that involves inserting fine, sterile needles into specific points on the body to promote natural healing and restore balance.

Our Process
Consultation
We discuss your health concerns, symptoms, and goals. Traditional pulse and tongue diagnosis may be used to assess your overall energy balance.
Preparation
You'll lie comfortably on a treatment table. The acupuncturist will identify the appropriate points based on your condition and insert fine, sterile needles.
Treatment
Needles remain in place for 20-40 minutes while you relax. You may feel a mild sensation upon insertion, followed by a sense of relaxation. Many clients fall asleep during treatment.
Aftercare
After needle removal, you can return to normal activities. We may provide dietary or lifestyle recommendations to support your treatment goals.
