What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is the ancient technique of inserting extremely fine needles to stimulate points along the body's meridians (energy channels).  This process adjusts Qi (bio-energy) in your body, to restore balance so that your body is in optimal condition to recover from illness and injury faster.​

​

Does Acupuncture really work?
Acupuncture has a history as far back as 3000B.C.  In more recent times, there has been numerous studies within the scientific and Western medical communities, which prove that Acupuncture works.

What are the side effects?
Unlike some medicines and surgery, Acupuncture has no lasting negative side effects.

​

How do I know if Acupuncture is suitable for my condition?
Acupuncture is beneficial in the treatment of most conditions, as well as for health maintenance and preventative treatment.  In many cases, Acupuncture can be combined with other treatment modalities such as Cupping or Herbal Medicine, for more powerful results.  Your practitioner will assess your condition and make a decision about which combination of treatment will give you the best results.  If your condition is best treated by other treatment modalities, your practitioner will also inform you.​
