We utilize acupuncture and herbs to access and amplify the body's healing potential. Our goal is to improve your physiological well-being . We do this by stimulating the central nervous system to release natural chemicals that alter hormonal output, pain response, and other biological processes. It does something completely remarkable – the stimulation deactivates certain areas of the brain while increasing the body’s natural opioids and release of neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, and oxytocin. This process has a powerful effect depending on the focused application: decreasing inflammation, increasing blood flow, balancing hormones, suppressing pain, and normalizing an out of balance nervous system.

How Many Sessions Do I Need?
Acupuncture and herbs are holistic treatments that improve the imbalances in our body, mind, and emotions. To create deep and lasting change, cumulative sessions are essential. Some people will get immediate relief from pain, muscle tension, menopausal symptoms, and mood that lasts for days or weeks. Some clients will need more frequent sessions to effect a change. For chronic problems or injuries that need time to heal, 8-12 sessions are typical. Fertility acupuncture requires a specific treatment plan spanning many months. We help clients with natural fertility and those pursuing IUI/IVF and other fertility treatments. Pregnancy-related support is always available as well. Acupuncture is offered in many hospitals in China, and clients might have 3-5 sessions a week until they achieve improvement. Here in the US, clients typically come in 1-3 times per week. Many long term clients get acupuncture once or twice a month for tune-ups.
We address acute conditions such as: colds, coughs, UTI's, flus, arthritis flare-ups, encouraging labor, allergic reactions, migraines, injuries, nausea or pain in pregnancy, gout flare ups, Bell's Palsy, and more.
What To Expect
Our first visit is 75-90 minutes, and follow up visits are 50-60 minutes. When you schedule your first appointment, please fill out our online health intake. We will use that to guide us through our first and subsequent meetings. You will have acupuncture with each session, along with optional cupping, gua sha, moxa, or estim.
We also offer health consultation, herbal formula recommendation, gua sha and/or cupping sessions for those who want our expertise but don't want needles.
What Is Functional Medicine?
Functional medicine testing is a way to assess a person's physiological strength & weaknesses and guide treatment. This can be done with blood test collection, or home test kits. We test hormones, adrenals, the gut, neurotransmitters and the brain, and toxins. We use DUTCH Complete hormone testing, the GIMAP comprehensive GI test, and the ORGANIX nutrition test. Typically, a functional medicine initial consult is one hour, and follow ups are 30 minutes.
