Acupuncture is a system of healthcare that has been developed, refined, and practiced in China for the past 4,000 years. In ancient times, acupuncture, along with herbal medicine, was used as the primary method of treating injuries and illness. It involves the superficial insertion of hair-thin needles into points on the body that have been proven to relieve pain and disease. Nowadays, most people come to an acupuncturist for medical problems that do not respond well to western medicine (such as drugs, surgery, pain killers, etc.). Dr. Roemer-Brown begins each patient’s experience with the traditional four examinations as well as an orthopedic-neurological examination technique. She has an innate ability to assess each patient’s body, mind, and spirit. After a comprehensive diagnosis, she will review treatment options with the patients, which allows them to feel totally involved in their treatment. She ensures that all of her patients are treated with the highest standard of care.
