Acupuncture
Marianne Volpe, MAOM, L.Ac., extension 2

Acupuncture is a system of healthcare used by over 1 billion people per year. This oldest continuous used form of medicine has been practiced in China and other eastern countries for over 3,000 years. The goal of acupuncture is to help restore the body to balance and while helping the body's systems work better. In China most internal conditions are treated with acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine (CHM).

The World Health Organization (WHO) and the National Institute of Health (NIH) recognize the effectiveness of acupuncture in treating many diseases including and beyond; migraine headaches, arthritis, pain, depression and anxiety, Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), sciatica, digestive disorders, childhood illnesses, PMS, and asthma.

The unique power behind this type of medicine comes from its ability to treat an individual person and not a disease or a symptom. The treatment is based on resolving the underlying cause of the problem (the “root”), which not only rids the body of its symptoms (the “branches”) and also prevents those symptoms from returning. Treatments are specific to each individual, and address each person’s specific disharmony.

Acupuncture stimulates the body’s own healing process naturally, allowing the body's physiological systems to work better. Acupuncture does this without any side effects. Some patients seek treatment to optimize health and vitality, without specific ailments. The treatments support their state of wellness and prevent disease from occurring.

The benefits of acupuncture often go beyond relief of a particular condition. Many patients also experience an increase in energy and well being, and improved sleep. Acupuncture is safe and has been tested for over 3,000 years.
