What conditions can acupuncture support?

Acupuncture and Chinese medicine support acute and chronic health concerns including low back pain, sciatica, neck and shoulder tension, joint pain, arthritis, migraines, PMS, endometriosis, menopause, pregnancy discomforts, injury recovery, IBS, anxiety, and insomnia.

Does acupuncture hurt?

Acupuncture needles are hair-thin, solid, sterile, and flexible. Most patients feel very little upon insertion—often a tiny sensation followed by mild pleasant warmth, heaviness, or gentle tingling known as De Qi. Most patients find sessions deeply relaxing.
