Properly applied by a skilled Acupuncturist, Acupuncture can increase your fertility, strengthen your body, prevent illness, increase energy and focus, induce restful sleep and treat insomnia, treat unexplained infertility, reduce or eliminate pain, quiet your mind, improve your health, benefit athletic performance, assist in the treatment of addictions, and help you live a longer and vital life.

How does Acupuncture work?

Acupuncture works by manipulating and enhancing Qi.  Qi (chee) is described as the vital force in the body.  The Qi can be accessed at specific points on the body referred to as Acupuncture points.  Energy flows through the body like water flows through a river.  When the flow of energy is interrupted, it is like the river gets blocked.  When Qi is blocked or in excess, this causes imbalance in the body and creates an environment for illness or pain.  When Qi is deficient, an Acupuncture treatment can replenish it.  Inserting Acupuncture needles into the appropriate spots on the body will resolve the imbalance, allowing the free flowing of energy and health to resume.
