Traditional Chinese medicine
theorizes that there are more than 2,000 acupuncture points on the
human body, and that these connect with 12 main and 8 secondary pathways
called meridians. Chinese medicine practitioners believe these meridians
conduct energy, or qi (pronounced "chee"), throughout the
body.
Qi is believed to regulate spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical
balance and to be influenced by the opposing forces of yin and yang.
According to traditional Chinese medicine, when yin and yang are balanced,
they work together with the natural flow of qi to help the body achieve
and maintain health. Acupuncture is believed to balance yin and yang,
keep the normal flow of energy unblocked, and maintain or restore
health to the body and mind. Traditional Chinese medicine practices
(including acupuncture, herbs, diet, massage, and meditative physical
exercise) all are intended to improve the flow of qi.

Frequently asked Questions
Is Acupuncture Safe?
One of the advantages of acupuncture is the absence of side effects.
Disposable needles are used exclusively and generally cause no bleeding.
What should you expect?
Traditional Oriental medicine uses an intricate system of pulse and
tongue diagnosis, palpation of points and meridians, medical history
and other signs and symptoms to create a composite Oriental medical
diagnosis. A treatment plan is then formulated to induce the body
to a balanced state of health. Treatment takes about 45 minutes, most
chronic conditions require a series of such treatments to see progress.
How Does it Work?
Acupuncture points are believed to stimulate the central nervous system
(the brain and spinal cord) to release chemicals into the muscles,
spinal cord, and brain. These chemicals either change the experience
of pain or release other chemicals, such as hormones, that influence
the body's self-regulating systems. The biochemical changes may stimulate
the body's natural healing abilities and promote physical and emotional
well-being.
How Many Treatments are Needed?
Each person is given an individualized treatment plan. The length
of treatment will depend on the duration, severity, and health at
time of treatment. A typical course of treatment consists of four
to six visits. At the end of a course of treatment a reevaluation
is given. Acupuncture has a cumulative effect. Successful results
require treatment of one to three times weekly. As results are obtained
the treatment interval is lengthened. Once health is restored, clients
return every one to three months for tune-ups that help maintain health.
