Acupuncture increases oxygen and blood flow, regulates the endocrine and nervous systems, aids cellular repair and alleviates pain by blocking pain receptors and stimulating the secretion of the body’s natural pain killers – endorphins and enkephalins. Scientific studies have proven acupuncture to be effective in treating many disorders including fatigue, common cold/flu, digestive disorders, musculoskeletal disorders, acute/chronic pain, respiratory conditions, allergies, headaches/migraines, infertility, gynecological disorders, neurological conditions, anxiety/depression and much more.

Functional Medicine is a scientific approach to the prevention and early assessment of complex, chronic diseases, and the use of natural therapies to restore health and well-being. The focus of FM is not on the condition itself but more on identifying and removing the underlying cause and the obstacles that block our healing, and improving existing physiological systems. Our patients utilize FM to have their condition treated but also achieve a high quality of life because the focus is on the whole person and not just the disease.
