Traditional Chinese Acupuncture is a holistic process which takes into account causes, signs and symptoms, thus treating you as a whole person rather than just a symptom. In addition Acupuncture benefits acute and chronic disorders, can counteract side effects of medication and it strengthens the underlying constitution.
Many patients find that a course of Acupuncture can lead to better sleep patterns, less stress, increased energy levels, and enhanced well being in general, even if these were not the issues with which the patient initially presented.
