The ancient art of acupuncture has been used in Asia for centuries to treat many conditions and relieve pain. It’s now being used in the United States and other Western countries to ease everything from low back pain, to nerve pain (such as painful shingles rashes), to headaches, fibromyalgia, and menstrual cramps — and more.

Traditional Chinese acupuncture involves the insertion of extremely fine needles into the skin at specific “acupoints.” This may relieve pain by releasing endorphins, the body’s natural pain-killing chemicals, and by affecting the part of the brain that governs serotonin, a brain chemical involved with mood. 

The World Health Organization  has conclusively agreed that acupuncture has been proven as an effective treatment for a wide range of body aches and pains, including:

• Lower Back Pain
• Sciatica
• Neck/Shoulder Pain
• Headaches/Migraines
• Knee Pain
• Tennis Elbow
• Carpal Tunnel
• Arthritis
• TMJ

• Bursitis

• Fibromyalgia

• Plantar Fasciitis
