The latest tool I am treating patients with at my clinic is a electronic stimulator, similar to a tens unit, that has been shown in clinical research to effectively treat pain, anxiety, depression, insomnia, addiction, and much more. The Alpha-Stim uses microcurrent tuned to the bodies own frequency to treat these conditions. When attached via clips to the earlobes it stimulates an alpha state similar to meditating. When using the probes to treat pain the the device stimulates nerves to block pain and actually promote healing of damaged nerves. There are over 55 five research articles and it has been treating many conditions effectively for 24 years. Here is a link to their web site with vast information and research. Please inquire about Alpha-Stim at your next appointment. http://alpha-stim.com/

Why choose acupuncture?
Acupuncture has been clinically proven to provide not only symptomatic relief but is also effective in treating chronic ailments. By placing small sterile, stainless steel needles along specific energy pathways on the body surface, Acupuncture activates the body's own defenses and natural healing potential.
Why choose Chinese Herbology?
As part of a treatment, Chinese Herbs consisting of plants, minerals, and shells may be prescribed. While the needles work from the surface of the body, herbs do their work internally to maintain and restore health. These herbs may be combined in a formula and customized to an individual's needs.
Acupuncture can be effective for many things.
