At the Acupuncture Center we specialize in treating the whole person through the use of Traditional Chinese Medicine and acupuncture, often also combined with lifestyle recommendations, dietary adjustments, physical activity, and massage. Once considered “folk medicine” in the Western world, acupuncture, and Traditional Chinese Medicine in general, is now known to be a highly developed, systematic, recorded, researched, and peer reviewed form of medicine with several disciplines that continues to evolve. We commonly treat patients with conditions treated unsuccessfully by traditional Western Medicine and, in fact, receive many referrals from local medical practitioners. Conditions such as low back pain, sciatica, carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, arthritis, and vertebral disc syndrome, to name a few, have been successfully treated and in many cases surgeries avoided through the use of acupuncture often combined with chiropractic and herbal remedies. We also work in partnership with primary care physicians to help reduce or eliminate patient medications for conditions such as fibromyalgia, depression, migraine headaches, sleep disorders, GERD, IBS, and many more.
