Our Treatment Process

There are 3 phases to your treatment and care...

Phase I

Relief Care

Most patients begin acupuncture to receive quick relief from pain, and other symptoms. This treatment allows you to feel better faster. Each visit builds on previous visits, paving the way toward eliminating your initial complaints. 

Frequent visits over the next few weeks or months may be needed. 

Your condition, age, lifestyle and the quality and quantity of your energy, called Qi (pronounced “chee”), are all factors in your treatment frequency. 

You will notice that your symptoms have been dramatically reduced or eliminated.

Phase II

Corrective Care

Signs and symptoms have been reduced, and visits are less frequent.

This phase supports the changes you have achieved and provides a foundation for deeper healing.

This is also the time when underlying problems can be addressed.

Even though you may not be experiencing symptoms, it is important to continue to strengthen, build and support your body.

Stopping treatment now could disrupt your progress, and even simple activities could cause a relapse.

Phase III

Maintenance Care

This type of treatment preserves all the progress you have made. Visits may be every other week,  monthly, or every other month.

Much the same way you keep a car running smoothly with regular oil changes and tune-ups, periodic visits to your acupuncturist can keep you running smoothly.

These preventative maintenance tune-ups further strengthen your body’s resistance, keeping you healthy, balanced and potentially free from illness.

Little problems may be caught before they become major concerns.

Acupuncture

Originating in China over 3000 years ago, Acupuncture is a system of medicine based on principles of harmony and balance. It is simple, safe and effective, providing relief to patients of many health issues without the side-effects of traditional western medicine and prescription drugs.

Acupuncture treats the root of the disease, not only the symptoms.

Yin-Yang

Yin-Yang (“dark-bright”) are used to explain the continuous process of natural change. It describes how opposite or contrary forces are actually complementary, interconnected, and interdependent in the natural world, and how they give rise to each other as they interrelate to one another. This represents the notion that too much of anything is unhealthy and a counterbalance is needed to bring harmony. 

Qi

Qi (“chee”) is our vital energy that animates the body and protects it from illness. Everything is made of and radiates Qi. The Qi maintains our health, balance and activates our lives. It’s the body's innate healing ability, which is activated through acupuncture meridian points. The Qi flows through pathways called meridians. When meridian pathways flow, they bring Qi that provides nourishment to every cell, organ, and muscle in the body.

Meridians

The meridians are the channels or pathways that carry Qi and Blood through the body. They are often compared to a series of interconnected highways. Chinese Medicine identifies them as the basic energy map for all people. Each of the major organs in the body is associated with its own meridian. Through this network, the internal organs are connected to certain areas and parts of the body including the muscles, bones, joints, and also other organs. 

Chinese five elements

Five Elements Theory is a Chinese philosophy used to describe interactions and relationships between things. The five elements — wood, fire, earth, metal, and water — are believed to be the fundamental elements of everything in the universe between which interactions occur. Each element has its own characteristics and associations with a different aspect of nature, such as direction, season, color, shape, and so on.

Diseases

Acupuncture is based on the principle that mental and physical well-being are intricately entwined. Optimal health is governed by balancing a person's Qi with the complementary forces of yin-yang and the five elements. Emotional imbalances can act as both symptoms and causes of physical issues and diseases. In addition, other elements, such as dietary, environmental, lifestyle, and hereditary factors, also contribute to the development of imbalances and the body's ability to heal itself.
