Acupuncture is a TCM technique that uses ultra fine needles inserted into specific points of the body to promote blood flow, release muscle tension, and stimulate the body’s natural ability to heal. Acupuncture is most commonly used to relieve pain, but it can also be used to treat mental health, hormonal balance and fertility, digestion issues, and much more. By targeting key points that relate to your unique symptoms, we can provide permanent, or long-term relief.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a holistic approach to healthcare that adresses underlying imbalances, as opposed to symptoms alone. It combines time-tested therapies such as acupuncture, cupping, moxibustion, and herbal medicine to determine and treat the root cause of illness. By tailoring each treatment to your unique needs and lifestyle, we can help you achieve permanent, or long-term relief.
