Acupuncture Intern at Phoenix Institute of Herbal Medicine & Acupuncture
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, our body's energy flows along certain pathways called meridians. This energetic network of meridians flow to keep our physical, emotional, and mental health in balance. When the body is out of balance, these pathways are not flowing properly and we start to experience symptoms.
Acupuncture inserts small needles into precise locations in the body in order to instruct the body how to harmonize itself back to homeostasis for greater health and wellbeing.
Each acupuncture point sends a signal throughout the body to allow the body to regulate itself, and instigate the body’s natural healing response. Acupuncture is a holistic medicine, meaning it looks at the person as a whole and focuses on restoring the entire mind, body and soul, versus treating one-off isolated symptoms.
Acupuncture can calm your nervous system and help you find relief from a wide variety of physical or emotional ailments. Ease stress, anxiety, chronic or acute pain, insomnia, fatigue, headaches, digestion issues, PMS, nausea - and more.
