I love acupuncture because it is a simple yet profound technique that gets results. I love that it can bring relief to a myriad of patients from the 16 year old athlete with a sprained ankle to the 80 year old with osteoarthritis of the knee to the pregnant mother looking for morning sickness relief. I practice gentle, effective, compassionate acupuncture based on Traditional Chinese Medicine. I tend to focus on those seeking relief from chronic and acute pain, maternity care, relief from headaches, relief from stress, and allergy relief. I also work with those who are already healthy and desire to maintain their good health.

Acupuncture in 98001 - is it right for me?
Acupuncture is based on the concepts of oriental medicine or traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and is one of the oldest healing practices in the world. 98001 acupuncturists are health care professionals who evaluate and treat the many conditions, aches and pains that respond to acupuncture.

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.
