Wellness Inside Out

What is Acupuncture? Acupuncture involves the insertion of ultra thin single-use sterile needles into specific areas of the body, as well as other stimulation techniques. When stimulated, different areas of the body produce different physiological responses. Over the 5,000 plus year history of Acupuncture, these body and mind physiological responses have been meticulously observed and recorded. The Acupuncturist uses this knowledge to promote healing. Healthy physiology depends on many body systems and organs working together in harmony. This requires proper communication and movement throughout the entire unified system. If communication or movement is compromised, healthy physiology becomes compromised. The Acupuncture Channels, which are accessed via the Acupuncture Points, are pathways which link the body-mind as a singular whole. The Acupuncture Channels act as a highly complex network which allows for the movement of both energy (waves, information, thoughts, emotions) and matter (particles, body substances, chemicals) throughout the body-mind. It is through this channel network that healthy physiology can be promoted. It is also this very same network through which healthy physiology can become compromised. What does Acupuncture treat? While Acupuncture is well known for pain management, it can help to treat any condition (known or unknown). Plus, Acupuncture is a powerful preventative medicine, treating the underlying mechanisms which precede the symptom/disease. Acupuncture works on body, mind, and spirit. A powerful benefit of Acupuncture is that it can help to move stuck/unresolved emotions, bringing peace to the mind. Physical healing is optimal when the mind is relaxed and peaceful. What to expect? All of my sessions are 1 hour long, both the initial visit and follow-up sessions. Every session involves an interview discussion. My assessment will involve a physical exam, which will include conducting a Chinese Pulse and Tongue Diagnosis. I like to spend some time on education and coaching to provide you with some insights and tools to support our sessions and your wellness goals. I am also a Reiki Level II practitioner and can utilize Reiki Healing as a supplemental and synergistic modality. Reiki is a channeled healing energy that can enhance our natural healing abilities. Reiki energy is of higher intelligence and can foster deep subconscious and spiritual level healing. ***I am currently offering a discount rate of $75 for new patients. This rate will be locked in forever.*** Availability for private sessions: Saturday: 9am-4:15pm (last appt 3:15pm)
