Acupuncture Services
at Alternative and Complementary Therapies for Wellness
Our acupuncturists specialize in providing holistic healing through the ancient practice of acupuncture. Whether you're seeking relief from pain, stress, or a specific health condition, acupuncture can help restore balance and promote optimal well-being.
What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine practice that involves the insertion of thin needles into specific acupuncture points on the body. These points stimulate specific areas on the body to help promote healing through increased bloody flow, reduced inflammation, enhanced nervous system functioning, and more. Acupuncture is used to treat a wide range of health issues and promote overall wellness.
