Acupuncture has been used for thousands of years as a way of maintaining health. There are tens of thousands of clinical trials and research studies supporting its efficacious practice. In China, acupuncture has been widely used and is still used today as a way of treating many different health conditions. With it’s proven effectiveness, we now see Acupuncture being used around the world, with additional studies performed in numerous European countries such as Germany, France and the United Kingdom. Even here in the US, current studies are consistently being released, showing new conditions that Acupuncture can be used to treat, as well as different ways that this tried-and-true therapy can benefit the body.
*If you are working with a lawyer and being treated on a lien basis, billing insurance, or worker’s comp, treatments will be billed at the regular price. If you are able to pay for the treatment at the time of service, you are eligible for the TOS Discount which offers significant savings. This is due to the fact that legal cases can take years to resolve, and insurance and worker’s comp automatically reduce payments to a fraction of what is billed.
How Acupuncture Works
Acupuncture works by stimulating specific points in the body, resulting in a therapeutic effect. This treatment gives the body more energy, stimulates the production of different hormones or neurotransmitters, and increases circulation to a specific area. Of course, 3000 years ago no one knew about hormones and neurotransmitters, they just saw that when you stimulated specific areas, and different groups of points on the body, people got better. You may hear people talk about “Qi” or “Meridians” but these are just terms that were used to explain what was being seen clinically. It is important to know that the only reason Acupuncture is still around is because these results have been repeated over and over again, by different providers, in different countries, and on numerous patients with similarly beneficial results.
