My acupuncture and homeopathy practice includes treating people of all ages, including children. Age and condition are always considered when planning a treatment so each patient is treated according to his or her tolerances.

During the course of acupuncture and homeopathy treatment, I have seen patients reduce or even eliminate their pain medication and use of anti-depressants. Sleep improves and their spirits are lifted.

We often hear that acupuncture affects pain by blocking neuro-transmitters. While it is true that acupuncture can temporarily block nerve transmission as in anesthesia, this is not recommended for long term health. It is important that your treatment be balanced to relieve the conditions that are causing the pain. Keeping this in mind, your treatments are always approached with the ultimate goal of healing the cause of your discomfort.

A sophisticated treatment plan will address specific systems as required while ensuring the overall balance of the individual. No single treatment approach can be useful for every situation.

Can you make an appointment for a treatment if you do not have a specific complaint?  Absolutely.  Regular monthly or seasonal acupuncture treatments are an excellent way to stay health andresilient. Many people find they enjoy the renewed energy following the deep relaxation of acupuncture.
