What Can

  Acupuncture Treat?

Acupuncture works by activating the body's own healing powers, so it can be beneficial for many health conditions. The comprehensive approach to helping you is by discerning the root causes of your condition. This approach has helped hundreds of patients implement lifestyle changes that have created lasting, sustainable results. Below are some common conditions I can treat, but please feel free to call me about your specific health condition.

 

Pain

One of the most common reasons patients come to see us is for pain relief. Acupuncture is extremely effective for many patients in both relieving physical pain, sometimes immediately after insertion of the needles, and also at helping patients remain pain-free on an ongoing basis over the course of many acupuncture treatments.
