I offer unique hands-on treatments which integrate Traditional Chinese Acupuncture and tui na massage with a modern understanding of chronic and acute pain. Having worked as a massage therapist for 10 years I expertly identify and eliminate myofascial trigger points, which can cause pain and dysfunction of muscles and joints, using tools such as acupuncture, tui na (massage), gua sha (muscle scraping / stripping), and cupping. Come visit us today and get relief today!

I believe that optimum health is achieved through encouraging and educating our patients to abandon the prevailing sickness care model of health and adopt the integrative care model. My vision is that true health can be found through optimum physical and social well being, not merely the absence of disease or infirmities. We won't be satisfied until you're healthy and your body works the way it was designed. We put the healthy and caring back into healthcare. Let's go beyond pain and dysfunction toward vibrancy and energy for life! Call today for a no cost health evaluation.

Acupuncture in Iowa - 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. Iowa 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.
