*Healthy aging
Nothing stays the same. As we grow and change through the years so do the needs of our bodies, minds and spirits. It is a gift to grow “old”. Acupuncture is a great support not only to the functions of the body but also to the state of our minds, emotions and spirit on the path to fulfilling a life well lived in our higher years and beyond.
*Women’s Health
Gynecology is a very successful area treated by TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine). Women receive relief from headaches, painful and/or irregular menstrual cycles, hormonal mood swings, difficulty with menopause and fertility issues. Other problems treated include fibroids, endometriosis, fibrocystic breast disease and polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS).
*Oncology
Acupuncture helps people going through chemotherapy and radiation treatments decreasing side effects, such as nausea, digestive disruption, fatigue, hot flashes, “chemo-brain” and depression. Acupuncture also strengthens the immune system supporting the body, mind & spirit throughout treatment and recovery.
