About Acupuncture
Classical 5-Element Acupuncture is a living tradition of medicine that works in accordance with the laws of nature. It comes from a time when it was understood that humans are not separate from nature, and that our health as well as our illness is reflected in the natural world around us. 5-Element Acupuncture reaches to the root of each individual and to the causes of disease by treating constitutionally instead of symptomatically.
How it Works
There are over 360 acupuncture points on meridian pathways all along the body. Fine, sterile, hair-thin needles are inserted at specific points to allow the inherent wisdom of the body to restore health. Acupuncture is safe, effective, free of side-effects, and can be used as a stand-alone modality or in conjunction with other therapies.
