Traditional Asian Medicine (TAM) is the only medicine today for which clinical results have been recorded in writing for over 2000 years. The World Health Organization estimates that more people worldwide use acupuncture more than any other form of health care.

TAM views a person as an energy system in which body, spirit and mind are unified, each influencing and balancing the other. Based on thousands of years of clinical results, it has been scientifically documented that this energy, qi, flows through us in twelve major organ channels. As long as this energy flows freely throughout the channels, health is maintained. But once the flow of energy is blocked, the system is disrupted and pain and illness occur.



Acupuncture is the use of painless, ultra-fine disposable needles which are inserted at specific points of the body to very precisely redirect the flow of qi.

There are over three hundred sixty acupoints on the body. Each has its own specific function. Depending on the desired effect, different techniques can be used to either stimulate, sedate, or regulate the flow of qi. A typical insertion can last from fifteen to forty minutes, sometimes more, sometimes less depending on the desired outcome.

After a treatment, most patients feel relaxed and rejuvenated with partial or total relief of major symptoms treated. Ultimately, acupuncture decreases the body’s stress and inflammatory response (sympathetic dominance) and allows the body to operate in a more relaxed, healthy state.

A stressed body and mind is much more susceptible to illness and disease. A body/mind/spirit at ease remains healthy and strong.
