Acupuncture
Our Authentic Formula
What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is a form of Traditional Chinese Medicine that uses fine, sterile needles to stimulate different acupuncture points on the body to treat many health conditions and relieve pain. Acupuncture may help restore the body to its natural state through balancing and unblocking the body’s energy (“Qi”) flow.
​What are the benefits?
Because the goal of acupuncture is to restore the body’s natural function, people find it reduces symptoms of many conditions and relieves pain. Examples of what acupuncture can treat include:
-
Headaches and Migraines

Back pain and sciatica

Insomnia, stress, anxiety
-
Fertility and pregnancy support

Does it hurt?
There are different styles of acupuncture, ranging from pain free Japanese acupuncture where you barely feel the needle, to Traditional Chinese acupuncture which may feel like warmth, numbness, aching or tingling where the needle is inserted. Other tools are also used such as moxibustion (gentle heating of the skin) and cupping to reduce muscle tension. Generally, people feel very relaxed during and after an acupuncture treatment.
