Our Mission is to provide effective, low-cost treatment for a wide variety of ailments using acupuncture and other healing modalities of Traditional Oriental Medicine. Our licensed professionals provide compassionate healthcare and wellness education that inspire our patients to better understand their health and well-being, while effectively treating their mind, body and spirit.

Acupuncture improves the body’s functions and promotes the natural self-healing process by stimulating specific anatomic sites--commonly referred to as acupuncture points, or acupoints. The most common method used to stimulate acupoints is the insertion of fine, sterile needles into the skin. Pressure, heat, or electrical stimulation may further enhance the effects. Other acupoint stimulation techniques include: manual massage, moxibustion or heat therapy, cupping, and the application of topical herbal medicines and linaments.
