Acupuncture is a component of the health care system of China that can be traced back at least 2,500 years.
The general theory of acupuncture is based on the premise that there are patterns of energy flow (Qi) through the body that are essential for health. Disruptions of this flow are believed to be responsible for disease. Acupuncture may, it has been theorized, correct imbalances of flow at identifiable points close to the skin.
Acupuncture is a family of procedures involving stimulation of anatomical locations on or in the skin by a variety of techniques. Traditional Chinese medicine explains that health is the result of a harmonious balance of the complementary extremes of “yin” and “yang” of the life force known as “qi,” pronounced “chi.” Illness is said to be the consequence of an imbalance of the forces.
Qi is said to flow through meridians, or pathways, in the human body. These meridiens and energy flows are accessible through 361 acupuncture points in the body. Inserting needles into these points with appropriate combinations is said to bring the energy flow back into proper balance.
Some experts have used neuroscience to explain acupuncture.

Frequently Asked Questions
What sets you apart from other acupuncture clinics?
I have more than 34+ years of work experience. My primary concern is alleviating pain for my patients. I have extensive clinical experience and am proficient in trauma surgery, orthopedics, and acupuncture therapy. I specialize in the analysis, diagnosis, and acupuncture treatment of various conditions, including pain, anxiety disorders, smoking cessation, and common warts. I skillfully combine acupuncture, massage, and all major integrative treatment methods of traditional Chinese medicine to develop unique treatments for both common health issues and rare, complex diseases. I create personalized, comprehensive plans that address not only symptoms but also the root cause of diseases.
Is acupuncture covered by my insurance plan?
If your insurance plan covers acupuncture, you may get part or all of the visit covered. Check with your insurance provider to find out what level of coverage you have.
How many treatments are needed?
Typically patients report feeling better after 3 to 6 treatments. However, this can vary between individuals – with some requiring more treatments and others less treatments to get rid of pain or other symptoms.
Can acupuncture sometimes be uncomfortable or painful?
Some people feel a little stinging when the needle goes in. However, once the needle is in, they feel very relaxed and comfortable. Many patients even fall asleep during the treatment.
