Conditions

If you are wondering, “Can acupuncture help me?” the answer is probably yes. Acupuncture dates back thousands of years…. and is still being used today because it works. Even better, it is a safe and gentle choice to treat many health conditions.

 

The National Institutes of Health Consensus Statement states “one of the advantages of acupuncture is that the incidence of adverse effects is substantially lower than that of many drugs or other accepted procedures for the same conditions.”

Acupuncture treats the whole person rather than the disease, helping to restores the body’s balance.
