Acupuncture dates back to around 5000 BC and it happens to be a form of treatment that has been effectively recommended by the World Health Organization or the W.H.O. of the United Nations for being effective in resolving hundreds of health related problems, including various cancer and rehabilitation treatments. Acupuncture is gentle and at the same time natural and holistic. It is successful in the determination as well as diagnosis of health issues, and works by encouraging the body to promote it’s own means of recovery as well as methods of natural healing for improving the general functioning of the body.

Acupuncturist and Herbologist, Martha E. Hall, LAc, uses Acupuncture to relieve blockages or imbalances within the body. By inserting tiny needles along meridian lines of the body, she stimulates specific points located near or on the skin’s surface. Most people find the process relaxing, rather than painful. In fact, acupuncture is often used to treat pain, as it raises endorphin levels and diminishes the nervous system’s pain response, decrease inflammation and swelling, relaxes muscles and increases circulation to the area.

Chinese Herbs, Teas, and Formulas are used along with Acupuncture and are drawn from a pharmacopeia of thousands of herbs for specific conditions. Chinese herbal medicine can be used to expedite the healing process, as well as strengthen, support and tone the body. These formulas have the capacity to address the underlying root cause of various medical conditions, whether acute or chronic. When prescribed and used correctly, Chinese herbal formulas and teas rarely cause unwanted side effects. Chinese herbal medicine is a safe, effective and drug free way to become and stay healthy, naturally.
