What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is a 5,000 year old Chinese natural healing system (No drugs, No surgery), which is concerned with restoring proper energy flow to the various organs, glands and tissues of the body on the premise that most diseases are the result of malfunction due to disrupted energy flow.

What if I am Healthy can Acupuncture Prevent Future Problems?
Yes. Acupuncture has traditionally been used as a preventive medicine, and for health maintenance. Recent research has verified that acupuncture stimulates immune function, which increases resistance to bacterial and viral infections. Many people find that occassional acupuncture "tune-ups" help them to feel "in sync". Studies show that people receiving regular acupuncture get sick less often and recover more quickly, and
have markedly fewer long term health care costs.
