Traditional Chinese Medicine has been used successfully in Asia for several millenia as a comprehensive system of healthcare.  Regulated in the 1970’s and then promoted by the U.S. National Insitute of Health as an effective therapy for a variety of conditions, acupuncture is now widely accepted as an important complement to modern medicine.  It is currently America’s fastest growing choice for healthcare and is covered by nearly all insurance companies. Practitioners treat patients using the five traditional branches of therapy including: acupuncture, acupressure, herbal medicine, qi-gong, and dietary changes.  Your practitioner will complete a thorough intake and select a treatment specific to the imbalance.  More than just the elimination of symptoms, this approach aims to lift the individual to a higher state of health.
