Acupuncture was first thought of in America as a treatment for pain, and is very effective in that area, but does much more. When your body is out of balance due to age, trauma, medications, diet, heredity, etc., pain and sickness can appear. Acupuncture is designed to restore that balance. It also is very good for pre and post surgical procedures, stress, shingles, back pain, menopausal symptoms, detoxification from drugs and alcohol, arthritis, headaches, fertility issues, side effects from cancer treatment, and other ailments.

I've always had an interest in both helping people and hands-on work, and have found massage therapy to be an excellent way to combine the two. Helping people deal with any stress, anxiety, or physical pain they might be experiencing enables them to heal their mind, body, and spirit. I like to think that having healthy, balanced individuals leads to having a healthy, balanced community, which benefits everyone.
