These chemicals provide tremendous health benefits, whether it is influencing the body to heal more quickly, or simply altering how you may be experiencing pain. Regardless, the healing and regenerative properties of acupuncture are amazing; the only way to find out if acupuncture is the perfect treatment plan for you is to give it a try.

What An Acupuncturist may do
During the initial exam, your acupuncturist will take a full health history. She will ask questions regarding your health, symptoms, and lifestyle. She may also look at your tongue and check your pulse to gather more information about what's going on in the body.
Gathering this information is key in order for your practitioner to effectively diagnose and detect any specific imbalances within the body. This enables the acupuncturist to creat a well-structured treatment plan.
Once a Chinese Medical Diagnosis has been made, the practitioner will place fine, sterile needles at specific areas on the body along "meridian pathways". The safe and painless insertion of these needles helps to rebalance the body's systems.
