How long does it take for acupuncture to work for pain?
We have a saying in Acupuncture, "The longer in the making, the longer in the fixing." If this is an acute pain you're experiencing, it may dissipate very quickly, in just a couple of sessions. But if it is chronic, it will need many more. It should be assessed in person. READ MORE
Do you get immediate relief from acupuncture?
It depends on what type of pain you are experiencing and how long you have had the pain. In any case, you are most likely going to feel a little better after the first appointment, but if it is a chronic problem it will take more treatments for the relief to last. READ MORE
Can acupressure cure diseases?
We are not allowed to say we can cure diseases of course, but inherently Acupuncture improves the functioning of organs and the circulation of body fluids around the body. Disease is caused by a lack of healthy circulation in one area of the body, either producing a blood clot, a tumor, neuropathy, etc. So if you consider Acupuncture can improve the very thing that causes disease, it is feasible to say that. The best way to prevent disease though is by making choices on a daily basis that improve circulation, like regular Acupuncture, healthy eating, exercise, not smoking, etc. READ MORE
How do you relieve pressure points in your feet?
Rolling your feet on foot massage balls is a good way! Epsom salt soaks are another favorite of mine, but the two together are best. READ MORE

Acupuncture is a system of healthcare that has been developed, refined, and practiced in China for the past 5,000+ years. In ancient times, Acupuncture, along with herbal medicine, was used as the primary method of treating injuries and illness. It involves the insertion of solid, filiform stainless steel needles into points on the body that have been proven to relieve pain and discomfort. Fundamentally, Acupuncture works by improving the circulation of blood and energy around the body and can therefore serve as an effective vehicle to maintain general health and well-being when utilized preventively.
