I am a very compassionate practitioner, ready to work with you and find the root cause of your issues. One of the reasons I got involved with Chinese Medicine was for its ability to look at the whole person. By taking a thorough health history and really listening, I am able to determine why you are not experiencing optimal health. Acupuncture can be great at treating acute conditions such as common cold, strained neck or a headache that just won't go away. It is also great at successfully treating those chronic complaints that have not responded to western medical treatment.

Acupuncturists insert very fine acupuncture needles into the body. The purpose of the needles is to stimulate acupuncture points or meridians. The needles do not inject any substance into your body and are so fine as to be virtually impossible to feel. In some cases, acupuncture may be accompanied by electrical stimulation or the burning of moxa, a form of heat therapy. Or use acupressure, where physical pressure is applied by hand or elbow to trigger points with the aim of clearing blockages in these meridians.
'Accupuncture' and 'Accupuncturist' are common mis-spellings.
