Why Choose Acupuncture?

Five Element Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine are ancient systems of medicine that take a deep understanding of the laws and patterns of nature and apply them to the human body.  This is why these methods are often used as a preventative medicine.  As nature shifts in its cycles throughout the year,  your energy shifts as well.  Acupuncture helps you acheive and/or maintain balance during the natural movements throughout your life.  Symptoms are signs of imbalance and they are your body’s way of letting you know that you need to pay attention.   Because acupuncture is a system of healing that addresses the whole person, patients often experience relief in areas beyond their original complaints as the whole system comes into balance.   In this medicine both symptoms and the root cause of dis-ease are addressed.  Over time this can lead to restoration of health, improved immunity, increased energy, emotional balance and an openess towards life.
