Sometimes in life, the passion finds you, and your world is never the same. This is exactly what happened to Brooke Zanni.

Brooke Zanni makes the nonbelievers truly understand that Acupuncture works! She is exceptional at what she does and has had success in helping her patients. She puts her entire heart and soul into her treatments and takes pride in getting to know each individual person fully.
She is different than other Acupuncturists out there. Brooke has grown up around Acupuncture since she was 7 years old. Being around such an incredible alternative medicine and learning so much about it at such a young age has given her a true advantage in being the best at what she does.
Afraid of needles? Brooke puts your mind at ease. She carefully and slowly explains how the needles are painless. The needles she uses in her practice are thinner than a strand of hair. She describes the experience upon insertion of the needle as being more of an “ooo” feeling, not an “ouch” sensation. When you feel that “ooo” feeling, it is the needle breaking up the stagnation causing disruption, pain and/or imbalance in the body and the Qi and Blood moving through that stagnation allowing proper flow through each channel and meridian in the body.
In addition to Acupuncture, Brooke also incorporates many other modalities into her treatments. Cupping, Slide Cupping, Electric Stimulation, Tuning Forks and soft tissue techniques are additional therapies she likes to add to her treatments.

What can acupuncture do for the muscles?
Energy flows along meridians throughout your body. This continual flow of qi (energy) keeps the yin and yang balanced. When this flow gets interrupted, the interference may lead to lack of function, pain or illness. Acupuncture can release the blocked qi in your body. This will enable the body’s normal healing response. Acupuncture is stimulating your nerves, muscles and connective tissue. The stimulation increases blood flow, and also triggers your body to respond. Your body will then release hormones called endorphins. 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, were 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. Brooke attributes her professional success to how much she cares for her patients and their wellness.
