ACUPUNCTURE & ORIENTAL MEDICINE

ACUPUNCTURE is an ancient therapy that has been around for over 2000 years and is now being integrated in many hospitals and clinics around the world. It is a system that views each individual as a whole, restoring balance to the entire system. It does this by inserting very thin, hair-like needles into specific acupoints and meridians (energetic pathways) stimulating appropriate acupuncture points along these meridians, the energy is then regulated, and health is restored. Acupuncture is not painful.

Acupuncture has been highly recognized by the National Institute of Health (NIH) as well as by The World Health Organization for its benefits in treating pain, anxiety, sleeping disorders, migraines, and as an adjunct treatment for Cancer patients as well as other health related concerns.

Its successful use for pain management in particular results from stimulating acupoints which release endorphins that are natural pain killers in the body.

Herbal remedies, Moxibustion, nutrition, meditation, breathing exercise and other methodologies are all part of Oriental Medicine and may be integrated or added on to further support the natural healing system within the body, and to improve and maintain general health.
