The Body Works Best When Balanced
ACUPUNCTURIST
The body works best when balanced...
It’s a simple concept, right? We intuitively understand that all things require balance, yet oftentimes our lives can take us out of this balance. When the body is balanced, it is most efficient. The mind, body, and spirit are working together. In America, we are familiar with medical doctors, chiropractors, and physical therapists correcting imbalances in our bodies. Most of these practitioners use the muscular, skeletal, and nervous systems to correct these imbalances. Acupuncture is a modality of East Asian Medicine. Acupuncturists focus on adjusting imbalances within the body through the use of the systems of western medicine as well as the meridian system, a system unique to East Asian Medicine.
Acupuncture is a wonderful adjunct to chiropractic care.
Acupuncture therapy involves the use of hair-thin needles, strategically inserted into points along the meridian system that correlate with specific bodily functions. Acupuncture promotes natural healing and improved overall function. Chiropractic treatments work well in establishing alignment and free-flow of nervous system function in the body while acupuncture takes advantage of this newly freed energy reservoir and utilizes it to supplement deficient organs.
