Traditional medicine encompasses myriad modalities for balancing and maintaining health, including acupuncture, herbal medicine, and more.

Some Common Questions...

Does acupuncture hurt?

The concept of pain is subjective, and therefore there is no direct answer to this. In my experience, no, it does not hurt, and some say yes on the lower concentration continuum. The acupuncture needle's solid internal structure is different from that of the hollow syringe, and about a hair strand's thickness, therefore creating a much different sensation than an injection.

How does acupuncture work?

To completely answer this question, a much longer space than allotted here is necessary, but when considering the acupoint's correspondences to bodily organs and all aspects of the body, along with electricity and the nature of how we exist with our environment and through specific constitutional tendencies, we reach a succinct answer.

How often should I get treatments?

Depending on what the practitioner recommends and how you feel, you can get acupuncture as much as you like, and effects promote continued healing and balance after each treatment. Most patients get weekly treatments, and some get treatments twice a week or more.

What can traditional medicine treat?

A practitioner of traditional medicine has most likely treated a patient with any condition one can consider. Patients that western medicine often isn't sure how to continue treatment with are often recommended to see acupuncturists, where they have thrived and enjoyed balance and health. From skin conditions, diabetes, and emotional disorders, to cancers and 'mystery' illnesses, there is nothing outside the scope of traditional medicine.
