Welcome to ELEMENT Acupuncture and Wellness

Thank you for taking the time to explore my website.  Every day people ask me if acupuncture will help with their (insert your own symptom here).  I tell them that acupuncture is a medicine that promotes health and balance. Your body is very wise and has the potential to heal, it just needs a little help every now and then. 

You can feel better and live life to the fullest. Acupuncture can help.

I believe that acupuncture should be an elegant and effective way to help a person with their symptoms, while at the same time improving their well-being, clarity of mind, and openness of heart.  The type of acupuncture I practice is my own style evolved from my training in Five Element Acupuncture in Graduate School, and a Japanese Style acupuncture called Keiraku Chiryo.  I also utilize a bodywork technique called zero balancing in my treatments as well.  I believe acupuncture shouldn't hurt so my treatments tend to be painless and very relaxing.
What is Five ELEMENT Acupuncture?
The five ELEMENTS are water, wood, fire, earth and metal.  These elements move in a cycle and when the cycle is disrupted symptoms can occur on a body, mind, or spirit level. 
 
I treat on a deep core level, clearing the inner imbalances that lead to symptoms and illnesses. Alleviation of symptoms without correcting this inner disharmony can give temporary benefit, but by treating the deeper, root cause of the imbalance you can gain more lasting results. 
It is an elegant and simply amazing Chinese art, setting it apart from other systems of medicine.  Your body is very wise, and through Five ELEMENT Acupuncture you can heal to your fullest potential.
 
I have treated a wide range of conditions (stress, anxiety, depression, pain, the side effects and adverse reactions to chemotherapy and radiation, as well as the results of HIV and AIDS).  A list of common conditions can be found on the Treatable Conditions page of this website.

10 different people can walk in with a headache, and I would treat all 10 people differently.  I take into account the nuiances of each person, their underlying constitution, and other aspects of their health and lifestyle.  No two treatments are the same, just as no two trees are the same.

If you would like to discuss your condition with me feel free to give me a call.  I will be happy to discuss how acupuncture can help you.
