About Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine

We are all concerned about affordable, quality health care.  Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine have provided quality health care without side effects for over 2,500 years.  They treat both chronic and acute conditions, and can often cure problems for which modern Western medicine has no cure.

Oriental medicine seeks not only to cure disease, but to improve health and vitality.

At The Healthy Practice, we recommend a holistic approach to health care which treats not only your physical discomfort but the internal imbalance which creates that discomfort.  This approach may include:

• Acupuncture: This is the most commonly used method of promoting healing and balance within the body.  During treatment, our skilled acupuncturist inserts needles into specific points indicated by the conditions and symptoms of the patient.  Acupuncture can help alleviate pain and also promote a deep state of relaxation.

• Massage Therapy: When administered by a skilled and licensed professional, massage therapy serves as a key element in the relief of muscular and skeletal pain and in promoting overall relaxation and physical harmony.  The combination of acupuncture and massage therapy is often a key strategy in the treatment of your health care needs at The Healthy Practice.

• Herbal Medicine: Herbal medicines, used correctly, can help detoxify your organs and strengthen weak ones.  They often supplement Acupuncture to completely resolve an illness or physical imbalance. At The Healthy Practice, we are thoroughly trained in the proper use of herbal medicines for your safe and effective treatment.

• Dietary Therapy: Poor diet can often be the root cause of a medical condition as well as leading to a general feeling of physical discomfort and lack of vitality.  As part of your treatment plan, we will counsel you on healthy habits appropriate for your individual needs and lifestyle.
