The goal of acupuncture is the promotion, maintenance and restoration of health and the prevention of illness. Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine come together as a powerful tool used to diagnose conditions based on current symptoms and complaints that the patient presents. Traditional Chinese Medicine defines perfect health as a state of balance. It views illness, disease and functional complaints as being due to an imbalance. The key to successful treatments is to shift a patient back to a place of equilibrium.

Chinese Medical theory states that the body is composed of 12 main meridians that regulate Qi (Energy) & blood though out the body. Irregularities in the circulation of blood and Qi lead to pain and disease. Treatment of disease and rebalancing of the body is accomplished through acupuncture. Fine needles are inserted into specific points on the body. Acupuncturists use their knowledge of the circulation of the body’s Qi to select points that will reduce pain and promote health.

Acupuncture needles are extremely thin; they range from 25-50 times thinner than a hypodermic needle. They are sterile and single use only. Most people describe the treatments as painless and relaxing, many people even fall asleep.

Osteopathic practitioners treat a wide variety of health problems throughout the whole body including the musculoskeletal, vascular, nervous and visceral system. They do not just treat the symptoms or areas of complaint: they treat the individual as a whole functional unit.

Some of the most common complaints that osteopaths are able to help with are:
neck and back pain, sports injuries, headaches, whiplash, postural problems, occupational injuries, sciatica, carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, arthritis, knee and foot pain, pain during pregnancy and post partum care.

One of the goals of osteopathy is to bring the body to equilibrium. For athletes, this means preventing overloading and becoming injured. For non athletes, this means feeling better by not accumulating tension and poor posture that could result in other problems, like a chain reaction.

Seeing an Osteopathic Practitioner does not require you to be injured since it is beneficial to have your posture assessed to assure that the body is in proper equilibrium.
