Benefits of Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a safe and conservative method of treatment that helps to gently restore mental and physiological balance and homeostasis in the body.

Oriental medicine is recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) and National Institutes of Health (NIH). The 1997 NIH Consensus Conference on Acupuncture stated, “The data in support of acupuncture are as strong as those for many accepted Western medical therapies. One of the advantages of acupuncture is that the incidence of adverse effects is substantially lower than that of many drugs or other medical procedures used for some conditions.”

Patients who commit to a healthy lifestyle and receive ongoing acupuncture treatment for maintenance and the promotion of good health often experience:

1

Sick Less Often

Getting sick less often and recover more quickly
2

Vitality and Stamina

Improved vitality and stamina
3

Self Empowerment

Being better managers of their own health
4

Harmony

Deepened and more harmonious relationships with others
5

Reduced Healthcare Costs

Reductions in long-term health care costs

A recent survey of people who receive acupuncture, conducted by Claire Cassidy, Ph.D., indicates that they see their physicians less frequently and use fewer medications. In addition, over two thirds of those surveyed reported having avoided recommended surgery.
