About Acupuncture
What is acupuncture?
Acupuncture is an ancient therapy from China which involves the insertion of fine needles at specific points on the body. These points connect bio-energetic pathways in that run throughout the body and facilitate the essential energy flow.
As long as this vital energy flows freely, health is maintained; but once the flow is blocked, the system is disrupted and pain and illness will occur.
Through the use of acupuncture and other modalities, the Oriental Medicine practitioner can assist patients in obtaining optimal health by treating the root of a particular illness while also alleviating the symptoms.
In addition, acupuncture allows for the individual to experience new and profound states of peace, clarity, harmony and balance.

MY Specialization
I offer a revolutionary treatment using auricular acupuncture. I find that this procedure is extremely effective for:
- Weight-loss, over-eating and food cravings
- Migraines
- Depression/anxiety/panic attacks/stress
- Post traumatic stress syndrome
- Anger
- Obsessions
I also acupuncture for facial rejuvenation and reduction of cellulite. It is safe and effective and much less expensive than surgery and much less dangerous than Botox. Of course, it will not be appropriate for everyone.
