What is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture as part of Chinese medicine is a complete medical protocol focused on correcting imbalances in the body that when left untreated can show up as medical conditions.  Our Acupuncturist’s treatments, sometimes accompanied by prescriptions for Chinese medicine and herbs, work at both the root of the issue – and the branch – how the disharmony is manifesting such as headaches, fibromyalgia, infertility, diabetes, high blood pressure etc.  By treating the root, often several issues are treated at the same time. You may come in for headaches and after several treatments realize that your seasonal allergies have also lessened or resolved.

What is Cosmetic Acupuncture?

Cosmetic acupuncture is a holistic, pro-aging treatment that naturally enhances your skin’s vitality while addressing underlying imbalances in the body. By stimulating collagen production, this treatment effectively reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne, and scarring. Using acupuncture points on both the body and face, we target specific concerns while also treating the root causes of imbalance to promote overall health and rejuvenation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does it work?

Acupuncture helps the body to remember how to work by restoring its systems and organs to a healthier state.  When your body is working optimally, you wake up with more energy to create change, from your work performance, relationships, and even how you view your life.  A body that is working is harmoniously is the foundation for a fuller and happier life.

Acupuncture is a whole body medical approach to bringing balance back to the body.  Side effects are typically reduced inflammation, improved sleep, less anxiety, and overall healthier well-being.

What about the needles?

An acupuncture needle is about the thickness of a strand of hair. Most patients who are needle phobic find after the first few insertions, that they are no longer afraid. The treatments are relaxing and many patients fall asleep during treatment.

Is acupuncture safe?

Acupuncture is incredibly safe and effective when given by a trained and licensed practitioner. The needles our Acupuncturist uses are single-use, sterile needles. All Acupuncturists are trained in clean needle technique. Overall, injuries from acupuncture with a licensed practitioner are very rare.

What is my initial ACUPUNCTURE visit like?

During your initial visit, your Acupuncturist will review your medical history and do a Chinese Medicine intake – this is an in-depth questionnaire regarding your main complaint and the different systems of your body. You will also have ample time to ask questions.

What Can I Expect In My Initial Cosmetic Acupuncture Treatment?

This session includes the use of the Celluma Light Therapy device, with red light to smooth fine lines and wrinkles or blue light to help combat acne. To complete the experience, we finish with facial cupping and/or gua sha to improve circulation, reduce puffiness, and leave your skin glowing. Following the treatment, you can expect your skin to feel more lifted, refreshed, and radiant. With regular sessions, you’ll notice improved texture, fewer fine lines, and a more even complexion. Many clients also report feeling deeply relaxed and balanced after addressing the underlying body patterns, enhancing both their skin’s appearance and their overall well-being.

How many appointments will I need?

This is the most common question. The general rule is that the longer you have had the condition, the longer it takes to resolve. During the first appointment, our Acupuncturist will let you know the suggested number and frequency of treatments that would be best for you.
