Acupuncture is a Journey to Total Body Health

Acupuncture is a form of traditional medicine originating from ancient China. The systemic insertion of the acupuncture needles aim to encourage microcirculation in the body and thus encourage healing. We tailor each acupuncture appointment to the needs of each patient; we also offer a plethora of additional services which include massage therapy, gua sha practices, cupping and Celluma therapy. We will discuss the benefits of each option to ensure your concerns are addressed.
